Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marat, a central character in one of history's most significant social transformations, has been alternately hailed as a heroic leader in the French Revolution and condemned as a bloodthirsty fanatic. During the Revolution, Marat was a crusading, agitational journalist. Before the Revolution, however, he was a scholar, scientist, and medical doctor. Unlike previous biographies, which have concentrated on the last four years of his fifty-year life, this one covers both of Marat's "two lives."

Book excerpt: Jean-Paul Marat's role in the French Revolution has long been a matter of controversy among historians. Often he has been portrayed as a violent, sociopathic demagogue. This biography challenges that interpretation and argues that without Marat's contributions as an agitator, tactician, and strategist, the pivotal social transformation that the Revolution accomplished might well not have occurred. Clifford D. Conner argues that what was unique about Marat - which set him apart from all other major figures of the Revolution, including Danton and Robespierre - was his total identification with the struggle of the propertyless classes for social equality. This is an essential book for anyone interested in the history of the revolutionary period and the personalities that led it.

Not illustrated. 1879 edition. Excerpt: ... JEAN PAUL MARAT. CHAPTER I. Were we called upon to designate the best abused man in modern history, I think we should not be far wrong in assigning this place of honour, or dishonour, as the case may be, to the individual whose name heads this sketch. The following are only a few of the sobriquets which have been liberally showered upon him by almost every writer who has handled the subject of the French Revolution. M. Michelet styles him the "personification of murder;" Sir Walter Scott compares him to a "wolf;" most writers designate him as the "monster;" even Mr. Carlyle, who would treat the memory of the "Sea-green Incorruptible" himself with some degree of consideration, has no name for "this poor man Marat" but that of "dogleech," "obscene spectrum," &c. The Marat of tradition and of public opinion is, B in fact, a mask, whereon is depicted, in a rough and ready manner, all that is most hideous in human nature; it is made to carry in propria persona all the errors and shortcomings of the Revolution, magnified into crimes by reaction and prejudice, much as the masks of the Greek actors displayed the human emotions--the grave or gay character being laid on liberally and without much regard to detail. Now I purpose in the ensuing pages to divest the name Marat, if only for awhile, of this grotesque suit of malevolence with which it has been enshrouded by the prejudice of public opinion and tradition, and to lay bare to English readers, as briefly as possible, the real man who bore this name--the Marat of history. I am led to this, firstly, by the desire of helping to rescue the memory of a man whom I believe to. have been possessed of a moral earnestness and steadfastness of purpose rarely met with; secondly, to contribute, by this...
