Very informative treatment of the economic, political and social situations before and during the '1789' French Revolution. Do not read this book if you want blood curdling descriptions of the slaughters, because there are none. Written in 1956 (for y0u Common Core math kiddies, that's 61 years ago), it has numerous obsolete words and makes assumptions of the 1956 reader's knowledge. In other words, even at 182 pages, it is very slow reading (why I gave it only 3 stars) but contains valuable information. I'm glad to have read it and, now, look forward to reading a book with blood curdling descriptions of the slaughters... ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Originally published in 1956, this masterly essay weaves together the results of research with an independence of judgement which could only come from a long-established expert in the field of Revolutionary studies. The book examines the causes of the French Revolution and the economics involved in the weakness of France's pre-revolutionary form of government as well as the administrative complexity which was an effective stumbling block in the way of monarchy. As well as charting key events in the revolution, the conclusion discusses the significance of the French Revolution in the context of other revolutions in both the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
