When this book was published in 1984, it reframed the debate on the French Revolution, shifting the discussion from the Revolution's role in wider, extrinsic processes (such as modernization, capitalist development, and the rise of twentieth-century totalitarian regimes) to its central political significance: the discovery of the potential of political action to consciously transform society by molding character, culture, and social relations. In a new preface to this twentieth-anniversary edition, Hunt reconsiders her work in the light of the past twenty years' scholarship. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

The second half of the book is more technical and looks at The revolution in the in a sociological mode which looks at the class breakdown across France during the revolution. It wasn't as interesting as the first half of the book and more than likely put in to have quantitative data to support her conclusion, which basically was that the politics of the day do not fit into the Marxist framework as there's too many things going on for the revolution just to be based on social classes. Although, it still has merit and can help you in understanding the revolution it just might be able to slog.
Overall the book was pretty interesting, however the average reader will probably only be interested in the first half of the book as the second half is bogged down with stats, that are probably only of interest to historical researchers.One thing I like about Hunt is that she'd are readable and although she takes complex topics shipwreck sit down and away that the average reader can understand. While probably not as interesting as the latest page turner if you're interested in the French revolution Hunt's is not a bad place to start. ( )
