The French Revolution
Hans-Ulrich Thamer
The epochal event of the French Revolution has profoundly marked the political and social developments of countries far beyond French borders.
She became the motor of constitutional change and of the development of liberal political cultures. Hans-Ulrich Thamer gives an account of causes, development and consequences and presents the main actors and their motives. The book explains important mechanisms of the revolution, including the special role of the Parisian metropolis, the revolutionaries’ wrestling for a constitution as well as the bloody reign of terror.
