This anthology is organized around conflicting interpretations of eleven of the most important issues and events of the French Revolution. The editors have included interpretations by noted
contemporary and earlier historians, and no one view or school of revolutionary studies is stressed. For the fifth edition, the chronological summary, the biographical profiles of historians, and the introduction
to the problems have been extensively revised, and the book has been enlarged by the addition of chapters on women during the Revolution and on the Revolutionary legacy. Selections by T. C. W. Blanning, William
Doyle, François Furet, Olwen H. Hufton, Gary Kates, Darline Gay Levy with Hariet Branson Applewhite, Laura Mason, Timothy N. Tackett, and David Gordon Wright have been added as well as the text in French and an English
translation of the "Marseillaise." |
