"Family romance" was coined by Freud to describe the fantasy of being freed from one's family and belonging to one of higher social standing. Hunt uses the term more broadly, to describe the collective unconscious images of the familial order underlying revolutionary politics. Most Europeans in the 18th century thought of their rulers as fathers and of their nations as families writ large. The French Revolution violently disrupted that model of authority and raised troubling questions about what was to replace it. Hunt focuses on the meaning of killing the king-father and the queen-mother and what these ritual sacrifices meant to the establishment of a new model of politics. In an account that uses novels, engravings, paintings, speeches, newspaper editorials, pornographic writing and revolutionary legislation about the family, Hunt shows that politics were experienced through the grid of the family romance. Her work explores the cultural foundations of modern politics.
