Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on the French Revolution The revenue of France was near twenty millions when Lewis XVI., finding it inadequate, called upon the nation for supply. In a Single lifetime it rose to far more than one hundred millions, while the national income grew still more rapidly; and this increase was wrought by a class to whom the ancient monarchy denied its best rewards, and whom it deprived of power in the country they enriched. As their industry effected change in the distribution of property, and wealth ceased to be the prerogative of a few, the excluded majority perceived that their disabilities rested on no foundation of right and justice, and were unsupported by reasons Of State. They proposed that the prizes in the Government, the Army, and the Church should be given to merit among the active and necessary portion of the people, and that no privilege injurious to them should be reserved for the unprofitable minority. Being nearly an hundred to one, they deemed that they were virtually the substance of the nation, and they claimed to govern themselves with a power proportioned to their numbers. They demanded that the State should be reformed, that the ruler should be their agent, not their master. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on History, Second and Concluding Series, Vol. 2 of 3: On the French Revolution I will now proceed to refer to some of the histories and commentaries on the French Revolution, drawn up by actors in the scene, or those who lived at the time. These accounts will present you with the same transactions and topics again and again repeated; but this, as I have mentioned to you, will only impress the leading points of this great subject more and more on your memories. To men of intelligence, to those who mean well, to all who are really interested in the liberties of mankind, and in the best happiness of their country, I consider this portion of the revolutionary story to be most particularly important: such men were, at this period, as I conceive, wanting in caution, in respect for those who had gone before them; were too sanguine, too enthusiastic in their good feelings, too confident in the people. And if these things be so, they ought to operate as an example to others hereafter; to other wise and good men; to other patriots, who must be taught, that it is not sufficient to have good intentions or great talents; that they must have prudence, circumspection, and many other virtues, which those, who engage in revolutions, are too apt to despise. Look, therefore, at the portraits of this singular period, which I am holding up to your view; for this is what I am now doing, while I am quoting from the writings or speeches of those who lived at the time.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The French Revolution and English Literature: Lectures Delivered in Connection With the Sesquicentennial Celebration of Princeton University The substance of this volume was embodied in lectures given in Trinity College, Cambridge, when I had the honor to hold the Clark Lectureship in English Literature. On receiving the honor of an invitation from the authorities of Princeton University to deliver a series of lectures in connection with the Sesqui-centennial Celebration, I revised my material and made some additions. It is the wish of those who organized and carried out that brilliant Celebration that these lectures should be published; and I am further encouraged to publication by the great kindness of many of my American fellow-students, and by the generous welcome which I received from an American audience. I think of my days spent in the autumn of last year at that old and distinguished seat of learning, which has contributed so much to the best life of the United States, with a feeling of happy gratitude.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Lectures Delivered at the Royal Institution, on the Ancien Regime: As It Existed on the Continent Before the French Revolution The Rules of the Royal Institution forbid (and wisely) religious or political controversy. It was therefore impossible for me, in these Lectures, to say much which had to be said, in drawing a just and complete picture of the Ancien Regime in France. The passages inserted between brackets, which bear on religious matters, were accordingly not spoken at the Royal Institution.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lessons of the French Revolution, 1789-1872 It is lowering to the pride of human reason, that such a profession of principles should be really descriptive of the opinions and purposes of large and inﬂuential classes of the French nation. It is melancholy to know that they should be maintained not merely by small sects like the Anabaptists of the sixteenth century, or the Mormons of Utah, but by powerful bodies of the leading nation of Conti neutal Europe Those who enter the lists in Opposition to the champions of these theories, will find that they have to deal with antagonists not only inspired with a wild enthusiasm, but gifted with great ingenuity and ability, enlisted in defence of these extravagant doctrines When once men desert the guide of experience, when they cease to consider human society, as built upon the certain principles existing in human nature itself, and when they suppose that they can reconstruct the world in accordance with their own views, there is no prac tical absurdity which their lively imaginations will not coin sophistries to defend. Experience never teaches them, the ruin of a thousand abortive schemes only stimulates them to construct the thousand and first, and they are ever ready to stake the very exist ence of society on the success of the last new scheme.

This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the French Revolution of 1848, Vol. 2 The announcement of a History of the Revolution of 1848, by the author of Les Girondins, who has been admired as the hero of that great event, was speedily followed by the publication of the book at Paris. An early copy of the work having been placed by us in the hands of the translators, they commenced their task at short notice, and under a pledge of rapid execution. Yet, in fulfilling the latter condition, they were to endeavor conscientiously to avoid injustice to the original. As far as possible, they have aimed to render every phrase of the historian by its equivalent in English, and not a line of his has been suppressed. The difficulties encountered can be fully appreciated only by those who are aware how completely the resources of the French, that flexible and copious language, have been exhausted by the ingenuity and genius of Lamartine, and how difficult it is to grasp some of his poetical and philosophical ideas and expressions. With these brief remarks, this brilliant contribution to the historical literature of the nineteenth century is submitted, in a separated form, to the candor and discernment of the American public.
