Product Review
"[The] analysis of historiography and a global narrative of events is a primary asset of this work. Recommended." Choice
Product Description
Bailey Stone uses recent scholarship on the diplomatic, political, social, economic, and cultural history of eighteenth-century revolutionary France to examine the outbreak of the French Revolution and the dramatic developments of the subsequent decade. Stone finds events of the period attributable to the interacting pressures of international and domestic politics on those national leaders attempting to govern France and to modernize its institutions. He contends that the Revolution of 1789-1799 requirements to be viewed in the greater contexts of "early modern" and "modern" French history and modern "progressive" sociopolitical revolutions.
Reader Reviews
This review is from: Reinterpreting the French Revolution: A Global-Historical Perspective (Paperback)
I read the book a year ago. It is not totally bad, but the perspective is not global at all, merely European and focusing on political aspects, not on social, economic, or any other factor. Given its title, I was disappointed (with a more humble name, it would be a fine book).
