DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The French Revolutions From 1789 to 1848, Vol. 1 Tm: French Revolution, which commenced under Louis XVI. In 1789, and which, under various modifications and phases, has been in opera tion ever since, is, of all others which have occurred in the history of the world, the event that has exercised the most important and decisive influence on the destinies of mankind. The lessons its extraordinary occurrences and stupendous consequences convey are invaluable, since they teach by the most emphatic testimonies those immutable laws of Providential guidance which sway the dispensations of good and evil, of rewards and retributions, in the affairs of men and nations; and they likewise teach to rulers and communities how best they may secure, by timely and prudent sacrifices, the blessings of good govern ment, without passing through the fiery ordeal of a social convulsion. As was natural, such an event has been treated in every variety of temmr and reflection, each writer, animated by the spirit of party, striving to enforce his own peculiar views, and often misrepresenting, always colouring, facts to support his predetermined conclusions. The time is now come, however, when it may be described with truth and impartiality; when the passions of the partisan may merge in the cooler deductions of reason; when it may be considered without any bias tending to obscure the judgment or vitiate the veritable development.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →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.
