The Routledge Companion to the French Revolution in World History
engages with some of the most recent trends in French revolutionary
scholarship by considering the Revolution in its global context.
Across seventeen chapters an international team of contributors
examine the impact of the Revolution not only on its European
neighbours but on Latin America, North America and Africa, assess
how far events there impacted on the Revolution in France, and
suggest something of the Revolution's enduring legacy in the modern
world. The Companion views the French Revolution through a
deliberately wide lens. The first section deals with its global
repercussions from the Mediterranean to the Caribbean and includes
a discussion of major insurrections such as those in Haiti and
Venezuela. Three chapters then dissect the often complex and
entangled relations with other revolutionary movements, in
seventeenth-century Britain, the American colonies and Meiji Japan.
The focus then switches to international involvement in the events
of 1789 and the circulation of ideas, people, goods and capital. In
a final section contributors throw light on how the Revolution was
and is still remembered across the globe, with chapters on Russia,
China and Australasia. An introduction by the editors places the
Revolution in its political, historical and historiographical
context. The Routledge Companion to the French Revolution in World
History is a timely and important contribution to scholarship of
the French Revolution.
