Louis Blanc (1811-82) was a French historian and politician whose
writings had a considerable influence on the development of French
socialism. In his famous Organisation du travail (1839) he called
for social reform by action of the State, an unusual position at
the time. As a member of the provisional government established
after the 1848 Revolution, he campaigned for workers' rights,
advocating the creation of cooperative workshops. His twelve-volume
Histoire de la Revolution Francaise (1847-62), most of which he
wrote while in exile in England, combines years of thorough
research with Blanc's characteristic socialist and republican
enthusiasm. Volume 3, first published in 1864, focuses on the
immediate aftermath of the abolition of feudalism by the National
Constituent Assembly. It describes the Women's March on Versailles,
which took place in October 1789, and the subsequent forced
relocation of Louis XVI to the Tuileries Palace in Paris.
