Download or read book Danton written by Serge Bianchi and published by Editions Ellipses. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Georges Danton, exécuté en avril 1794 (germinal an II), place de la Révolution est l’un des « trois hommes formidables » (Victor Hugo) qui dirigea la Première République française, avec Marat et Robespierre, dans les rangs de la Montagne. Rarement un responsable politique aura été autant encensé par les uns, au moment du centenaire de 1789, puis accusé par les autres, entre 1910 et 1930. Les historiens « dantonistes » ont célébré l’homme de la Patrie en danger (août 1792), de l’abolition de l’esclavage (février 1794). Les historiens « anti-dantonistes » ont dénoncé les compromissions politiques et la vénalité de celui qui voulut « épargner le sang des hommes » alors qu’il avait participé aux massacres de Septembre 1792 et à la mise en place de la Terreur, avant d’en être une de ses victimes, à 34 ans. Le présent ouvrage se propose de donner des clefs aux lecteurs pour comprendre quel fut finalement Danton. Dans un premier temps, il s’attache à restituer son histoire, entre la naissance à Arcis-sur-Aube (1759) et la guillotine (5 avril 1794) : tour à tour agitateur Cordelier, ministre de la Justice, dirigeant du Salut public au printemps 1793, Indulgent avant son procès tragique. Ensuite, sont analysés les regards croisés de ses contemporains, amis, alliés ou adversaires, pour connaître l’homme, privé et public, son charisme et ses faiblesses. L’historien montre enfin comment les mythes de Danton, personnage hors du commun, ont été amplifiés par l’histoire, les médias, les arts, l’enseignement, l’opinion publique. Dépasser les procès d’intention, les légendes, noire ou dorée, de Georges Danton : tel est l’objet de ce livre, au plus près des archives, des témoignages, des coups d’éclat et des failles de cet homme, Danton, qui incarna au plus haut point le destin de sa patrie, dans les avancées comme dans les contradictions d’une Révolution fondatrice.

Book excerpt: Les archives de Colbert, dont une partie était encore inédite à ce jour, concernent toute la politique française de Richelieu à la maturité du règne de Louis XIV. Pour la première fois, nous suivons pas à pas l'ascension de l'homme de confiance de Mazarin, devenu le principal ministre du Roi Soleil, l'artisan des réformes de fond du régime, le protagoniste d'un rêve économique, dont il supportera mal l'échec. Pour la première fois aussi, " l'affaire " Fouquet et celle des poisons nous apparaissent sans ambiguïté grâce à l'étude méthodique des papiers personnels de Colbert. Le temps de Colbert est-il révolu? A nous de juger. Descendante de Colbert, Inès Murat a eu accès aux archives de sa famille. Elle est l'auteur chez Fayard de Napoléon ou le Rêve américain (1976) et de La IIe République (1987).
Download or read book Figuring Transcendence in Les Miserables written by Kathryn M. Grossman and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this first book-length study of Les Misérables, Kathryn M. Grossman, with an authoritative command of Hugo’s work and Hugo criticism, situates the novelist’s masterpiece in relation both to his earlier novels—up to and including Notre-Dame de Paris— and to the poetry published during his exile under the Second Empire. Drawing on Paul Ricoeur’s theory of metaphor and on Thomas Weiskel’s analysis of the romantic sublime, Grossman illustrates how the novel’s motifs and structures correspond to a closely connected set of ethical, spiritual, political, and aesthetic concerns. The religious motifs in Les Misérables identify the sublime not just with utopian ideals (and the overthrow of Napoleon III’s grotesque Second Empire) but with artistic death and resurrection. Examining the ways the novel is largely concerned with the monstrous "brutalities of progress" called revolutions that must precede the advent of heaven on earth, Grossman traces that link to a mythos of sin and redemption and shows how the moral concerns of the plot also illuminate Hugo’s aesthetics. Les Misérables explores the tensions between heroes and scoundrels, chaos and order, law and lawlessness. Grossman painstakingly follows the novel’s ethical hierarchy from the grotesque (criminality) to the conventional (bourgeois complacency) and the sublime (sainthood), demonstrating how that hierarchy corresponds to two other hierarchies: the literary and the political.
