Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a unique and insightful analysis of the French Revolution, moving beyond a simple chronological retelling of events to delve into the fundamental political and philosophical principles that drove the upheaval. The author focuses on the underlying theory of popular sovereignty, the idea that a community derives its authority from itself, a concept the author argues is timeless and universal. He examines the influence of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, whose "Contrat Social" became a foundational text for the Revolution, and explores how Rousseau's powerful style of writing contributed to the revolutionary movement's momentum. The book also investigates the key personalities involved in the Revolution, including King Louis XVI, Queen Marie Antoinette, and the prominent figures of the revolutionary period. The authorââ â¢s discussion of the religious dimension of the Revolution, specifically the conflict between the revolution and the Catholic Church, sets this book apart from others. The author provides a nuanced understanding of the religious landscape of the time, highlighting the importance of this factor in shaping the course of the Revolution. Through its focus on the underlying philosophical and political ideas at play, as well as the personalities and dynamics of the era, this book offers a comprehensive and engaging exploration of the French Revolution, illuminating its lasting impact on the world.
