Book The Family Romance of the French Revolution

Download or read book The Family Romance of the French Revolution written by Lynn Hunt and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This latest work from an author known for her contributions to the new cultural history is a daring multidisciplinary investigation of the imaginative foundations of modern politics. "Family romance" was coined by Freud to describe the fantasy of being freed from one's family and belonging to one of higher social standing. In Freud's view, the family romance was a way for individuals to fantasize about their place in the social order. Hunt uses the term more broadly, to describe the images of the familial order underlying revolutionary politics. She investigates the narratives of family relations that structured the collective political unconscious. Most Europeans in the eighteenth century thought of their rulers as fathers and of their nations as families writ large. The French Revolution violently disrupted that patriarchal model of authority and raised troubling questions about what was to replace it. The king and queen were executed after dramatic separate trials. Prosecutors in the trial of the queen accused her of exerting undue influence on the king and his ministers, engaging in sexual debauchery, and even committing incest with her eight-year-old son. Hunt focuses on the meaning of killing the king-father and the queen-mother and what these ritual sacrifices meant to the establishment of a new model of politics. In a wide-ranging account that uses novels, engravings, paintings, speeches, newspaper editorials, pornographic writing, and revolutionary legislation about the family, Hunt shows that politics were experienced through the grid of the family romance.

Book excerpt: Original title, A Tale of Two Cities, is a novel by British writer Charles Dickens. In this historical novel, life is narrated in the 18th century, at the time of the French Revolution. The story takes place in two countries: England and France, and in the cities of London and Paris at the time of the dawn of the French Revolution.The novel begins with the young Lucía Manette who, together with Mr. Lorry (her father's former employee), rescues her father whom she believed to be dead and takes him to live in England, after spending 18 years confined and forgotten in the prison of the Bastille, where he was locked up in dungeon 105 of the north tower by the bloodthirsty Saint Evremont family.Five years later, Lucia and her father witness the moment when a French nobleman accused of espionage named Charles Darnay is found innocent in an English court. In that trial, Charles was aided by Sidney Carton, a rude lawyer who has a reputation as a drunk and a former suitor of Lucia, who has destroyed her talent and remains in love with her.A few months later, on the eve of Charles and Lucia's wedding, the lawyer Carton visits her while he is not at home and promises, knowing that his heart belongs to Charles, that he will give his life for her, or for someone she loves. That said, she withdraws from her, not before making him promise that she will remember him as the good and worthy man that he once was.On the day of the wedding with Lucia, Charles Darnay confesses to the father of his future wife that his real surname is Saint Evremont and that he is the last descendant of that aristocratic and murderous family, but that he denies being one.
