Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the French Revolution, Vol. 4 of 4 If we once more survey the state of European politics in July 1794, we see the military power of France decidedly in the ascendant, and a general exhaustion, and disinclination for war, on the part of the allied Powers. England alone was victorious at sea, and still resolved to continue the contest. Prussia had placed her Rhine Army at the disposal of the British Government, but otherwise directed all her hopes and efforts towards the war in Poland. Holland, the petty German sovereigns, Naples and Spain, wished for nothing so eagerly as peace - peace at almost any price.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The French Revolution, Vol. 4 of 4 Although it might be, and indeed in this case was proved to be, a momentous thing for a monarch to journey a few miles from one royal palace to another, it would not, on the face of it, seem that this shift of lodgings was in itself a very difficult matter. And yet, curiously enough, at the time when it took place the gravity of the business, its historical importance, its tragedy and its pathos, seemed less conspicuous, at least to the official eye and mind, than the difficulty, the trouble, and the worry of the undertaking. For the King of France to come from his palace at Versailles to his palace at Paris meant an amount of perturbation, of anxiety, of a despair touching the extreme of comedy, of which few except those immediately concerned had any conception.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The French Revolution, Vol. 4 of 4: A Political History 1789-1804 To avoid too frequent discursion in the following notes it may be briefly stated that Napoleon's military exploits, from 1796 to 1799, were as follows: In March he marries Josephine and sets out for Italy. Joining the French troops near Savona, he fights his way to Milan; incidentally forcing Sardinia to cede Nice, Savoy, and Tenda. He then beats the Austrians back to the Tyrol, and occupies Verona. Mantua is still Austrian, and Bonaparte leaves a siege train in front of the city while consolidating his conquests. He fails on this occasion to get through the Tyrol, but finally reduces Mantua. Then, meeting Hoche and Moreau after traversing the Tyrol, he makes towards Vienna. Austria sues for peace; ceding, after much delay, Belgium and the Ionians, and recognising Bonaparte's creation - the Cisalpine Republic - to which she cedes Lombardy. Bonaparte returns to Paris in December, having left behind him a Republican North Italy. He is feted and honoured by Paris; but the Directory fears him, and despatches him in May to Egypt, where he beats the Mamelukes and occupies Cairo. The French fleet being destroyed by Nelson, Bonaparte abandons the idea of an Eastern empire, and determines to return through Syria, hoping to overthrow the Turks. He is foiled at the long siege of Acre, and returns to Egypt. There, after defeating the Turks at Aboukir, he hears of events in Paris, and, hastily deserting his army, which he leaves to Kleber, he lands in France in October. In his absence Italy is lost; perhaps its loss during his absence increases his prestige. He returns with an extraordinary reputation as a totally independent conqueror, an administrator, and a maker of States. Largely as a result of his campaigns, France was for a time at the head of a number of surrounding Republics, all constituted on the same model.

Download or read book The Transformation of Political Culture 1789-1848 written by F. Furet and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2015-11-24 with total page 714 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This third volume in a much praised series on The French Revolution and the Creation of Modern Political Culture examines the way in which the Revolution has been portrayed in European thought and its impact upon the development of political philosophy in the nineteenth century. Opening with the influence of Burke and other contemporaries of the Revolution and the ensuing debate over the question "Why the Terror?", this volume explores such diverse themes as the legacy of the Revolution on the political and social evolution of Germany, England, Italy and Russia; the crisis it brought about in the Catholic Church; and the difficulties encountered in determining the end of the Revolution. By showing that the upheaval in European politics and philosophy caused by the French Revolution continued to shape nations, peoples and thought, the texts brought together in this volume permit a better understanding of the event's extraordinary complexity.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the French Revolution, Vol. 2 of 5: 1789-1800 The executive power being abolished by the suspension of Louis XVI., only two other authorities were left in Paris that of the Commune and that of the Assembly. As we have seen in the narrative of the loth of August, deputies of the sections had assembled at the hotel de Ville, expelled the former magistrates, seized the municipal power, and directed the insurrection during the whole night and day of the loth. They possessed the real power of action. They had all the ardour of victory, and represented that new and impetuous revolutionary class which had struggled during the whole session against the inertness of the other more enlightened but less active class of men of which the Legislative Assembly was composed. The first thing the deputies of the sections did, was to displace all the high authorities, which, being closer to the supreme power, were more attached to it. They had suspended the staff of the national guard, and by withdrawing Mandat from the palace, had disorganized its defence. Santerre had been invested by them with the command of the national guard. They had been in not less haste to suspend the administration of the department, which, from the lofty region wherein it was placed, had continually curbed the popular passions, in which it took no share. As for the municipality, they had suppressed the general council, substituted themselves in the place of its authority, and merely retained Petion, the mayor, Manuel, the procureur syndic, and the sixteen municipal administrators. All this had taken place during the attack on the palace. Danton had audaciously directed that stormy sitting; and when the grape-shot of the Swiss had caused the mob to fall back along the quays, he had gone out, saying, Our brethren call for aid; let us go and give it to them. His presence had con tributed to lead the populace back to the field of battle, and to decide the victory. When the combat was over it was proposed that Petion should be released from the guard placed over him, and rein stated in his office of mayor. Nevertheless, either from real anxiety for his safety, or from fear of giving themselves too scrupulous a chief during the first moments of the insurrection, it had been decided that he should be guarded a day or two longer, under pretext of putting his life out of danger. At the same time they had removed the busts of Louis XVI., Bailly, and Lafayette from the hall of the general council. The new class which was raising itself thus displaced the first emblems of the Revolution, in order to substitute its own in their stead.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the French Revolution, Vol. 1 of 4 It is to be regretted that an author so well versed in the annals of his country as M. Thiers, has not thought it worth his while to enter more into detail on the subject of the numerous secondary causes which helped to bring about the French Revolution. It will be observed that, after a few brief introductory paragraphs, of a didactic rather than an historical character, he comes at once to his subject, as if he took for granted that all his readers were as well acquainted as himself with the remote, as well as with the immediate, origin of that memorable event His history may be said to commence with the derangement of the national finances after the death of Maurepas; but the seeds of the revolution were sown long before his time. The immediately pro pelling cause was no doubt financial, but the struggle had become ne cessary - it may almost be said from the day of the decease (if the Grand Monarque.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The French Revolution, Vol. 2 of 4 In the month of October of the year 1783 the hero of a certain famous in famous fiction entered Paris for the first time by the Faubourg Saint-Marceau. 'I sought, ' he says, 'that stately city of which I had read such wonderful accounts. I found but high and squalid tenements, long and ludicrously narrow streets, poor wretches every were cloth the rags, a crowed of well-night naked children; I beheld a dense population, and appalling poverty. I asked my father if that was indeed Paris; he answered coldly that it was certainly not the finest quarter; on the morrow we should have time to see another.'These sentence, almost the opening sentence of the once renowned romance of 'Faublas, ' make a strangely appropriate text for any study of or any speculation upon the French Revolution.

This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The French Revolution, Vol. 3 of 4 It has been said that the fall of the Bastille first revealed to France the weakness of her Government, and that the Government never recovered from the revelation. But, indeed, the weakness of the Government had revealed itself before: first, when it consented to summon the States-General, and again, even more flagrantly, when it failed to accept the challenge of Mirabeau, and to coerce a mutinous Third Estate at the point of the bayonet. The weakness of the Government was betrayed rather by the triumph of the Tennis Court than by the humiliation of the Bastille. The weakness of the Bastille proved the strength of the people. The taking of the Bastille is not remarkable as a military achievement; the pettiest war ever waged must needs bear witness to exploits far more illustrious in the eyes of the soldier and the strategist.
