The French Revolution - Rethinking the Debate (Paperback, New)

A short introductory history of the French Revolution which covers the social, economic and cultural, as well as intellectual and political aspects. Taking this broad approach to the subject, Gwynne Lewis presents an interpretive essay which reviews recent debates and re-assesses the nature and impact of the Revolution. The author illustrates not only the variety of historical interpretations but also the range of different contexts in which the Revolution has been set. Six thematic chapters highlight the importance of analysis and interpretation in the study of a historical event, and the conclusion evaluates early "orthodox" and recent "revisionist" approaches to provide students with an intelligible resume of the Revolution and its historians.
