Taken as a whole the essays in this volume illustrate the
outstanding contribution made to French Revolutionary scholarship
by British and American authors. Professor Johnson has selected
essays which cover a wide spectrum of time, place and social class
but are vitally concerned to describe and explain the social
reality of revolution in its various phases. The essays fall into
three main groups; the first sets the scene with studies of the
social, economic and intellectual life of pre-Revolutionary France;
the second studies the role of fate of certain social groups during
the Revolution; and the third examines counter-revolution in two
provincial areas. The editor has added an introduction and index,
and some minor changes have been made to the essays. Many of these
articles are already well known to professional historian and it is
hoped that publication in the present form will make them available
to a wider audience interested in the social experience of the most
dramatic and far reaching of revolution in modern times.
