L'Ancien Régime e la Rivoluzione è un paragone tra la Francia rivoluzionaria e il dominio dispotico che ha rovesciato. Alexis de Tocqueville (1805-1859) è un osservatore obiettivo di entrambi i periodi, fornendo una critica spietata dell'ancien régime, con la sua venalità, oppressione e disuguaglianza, ma riconoscendo le riforme introdotte sotto Luigi XVI e sostenendo che lo stato post-Rivoluzione era per molti versi tirannico quanto quello del Re; i suoi ideali un tempo elevati ed egualitari corrotti e dimenticati. Scrivendo negli anni '50 dell'Ottocento, Tocqueville desiderava esporre il ritorno al dispotismo a cui aveva assistito ai suoi tempi sotto Napoleone III, illuminando il grande, ma alla fine destinato al fallimento, appello alla libertà fatto dal popolo francese nel 1789. Il suo studio eloquente e istruttivo solleva questioni sulla libertà, il nazionalismo e la giustizia che rimangono urgenti oggi.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A new translation of this classic textThe Ancien Regime and the Revolution is a comparison of revolutionary France and the despotic rule it toppled. Alexis de Tocqueville (1805-59) is an objective observer of both periods - providing a merciless critique of the ancien regime, with its venality, oppression and inequality, yet acknowledging the reforms introduced under Louis XVI, and claiming that the post-Revolution state was in many ways as tyrannical as that of the King; its once lofty and egalitarian ideals corrupted and forgotten. Writing in the 1850s, Tocqueville wished to expose the return to despotism he witnessed in his own time under Napoleon III, by illuminating the grand, but ultimately doomed, call to liberty made by the French people in 1789. His eloquent and instructive study raises questions about liberty, nationalism and justice that remain urgent today. Presents a critique of the ancien regime, with its venality, oppression and inequality, yet acknowledges the reforms introduced under Louis XVI, and claiming that the post-Revolution state was in many ways as tyrannical as that of the King. This book raises questions about liberty, nationalism and justice. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Codice articolo 9780141441641
