This book was released on 2012-09-20 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The experience, and failure, of Louis XVI's short-lived constitutional monarchy of 1789–92 deeply influenced the politics and course of the French Revolution. The dramatic breakdown of the political settlement of 1789 steered the French state into the decidedly stormy waters of political terror and warfare on an almost global scale. This book explores how the symbolic and political practices which underpinned traditional Bourbon kingship ultimately succumbed to the radical challenge posed by the Revolution's new 'proto-republican' culture. While most previous studies have focused on Louis XVI's real and imagined foreign counterrevolutionary plots, Ambrogio A. Caiani examines the king's hitherto neglected domestic activities in Paris. Drawing on previously unexplored archival source material, Caiani provides an alternative reading of Louis XVI in this period, arguing that the monarch's symbolic behaviour and the organisation of his daily activities and personal household were essential factors in the people's increasing alienation from the newly established constitutional monarchy.

Two captivating manuscripts in one book: The French Revolution: A Captivating Guide to the Ten-Year Revolution in France and the Impact Made by Napoleon Bonaparte Marie Antoinette: A Captivating Guide to the Last Queen of France Before and During the French Revolution, Including Her Relationship with King Louis XVI Few historical events are as greatly revered and entirely misunderstood as the French Revolution that began in 1789. The memory of this complicated and lengthy political, violent uprising has been generally painted in broad--and oversimplified--strokes. While the French Revolution was certainly centered around two lavish monarchs and an enlightened common class, there was so much more going on behind the scenes. Even after the abolition of the French monarchy, France struggled to find a balance between public self-governance and European stability. A fragile government, merely a shell of its former self following the Reign of Terror under Robespierre, was no match for the military and political prowess of Napoleon I. Some of the topics covered in part 1 of this book include: A Brief History of the French Monarchy Philosophies of the Times France in the 18th Century Marie Antoinette, Madame Deficit Taxes, Famine, and the Enlightenment Sieyes' "What is the Third Estate?" The National Assembly Death of the Dauphin Bastille Day The First Mayor of Paris Declaration of the Rights of Man...and The Women's March France at War The Flight to Varennes Storming the Tuileries The Monarchy is Outlawed The Fate of the Colonies The Louisiana Purchase The Reign of Terror The New French Calendar Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte In the Days and Years Afterward And much, much more! Some of the topics covered in part 2 of this book include: An Archduchess is Born Maria Antonia Becomes Marie Antoinette The Dauphine Queen at Nineteen A Marriage at Odds with Itself The Issue of Heirs Madame Deficit Count Axel von Ferson The Lost Children The Diamond Necklace Scandal Queen of Fashion The French Revolution The October Chapter Anxious Days at the Tuileries An Attempt to Flee Death of the Monarchy And much more!

Download or read book The History of the French Revolution Vol I Illustrated Edition written by Louis Adolphe Thiers and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2016-11-11 with total page 727 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The French Revolution was a period of far-reaching social and political upheaval in France that lasted from 1789 until 1799, and was partially carried forward by Napoleon during the later expansion of the French Empire. The Revolution overthrew the monarchy, established a republic, experienced violent periods of political turmoil, and finally culminated in a dictatorship under Napoleon that rapidly brought many of its principles to Western Europe and beyond. Inspired by liberal and radical ideas, the Revolution profoundly altered the course of modern history, triggering the global decline of absolute monarchies while replacing them with republics and liberal democracies. Through the Revolutionary Wars, it unleashed a wave of global conflicts that extended from the Caribbean to the Middle East. Historians widely regard the Revolution as one of the most important events in human history. Written by the first President of the French Third Republic himself, Louis Adolphe Thiers, this is the first of five volumes originally published in 1881 that together represent one of the earliest historical texts on the French Revolution, and one that became widely regarded as a standard authority. Richly illustrated throughout. An important addition to your French History collection.
