Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the profound impact of the French Revolution on the city of Strasbourg, a historical border town between France and Germany. The author reveals the complexities of the city's transformation from an imperial free city with its own unique constitution to a fully integrated part of the French state. The book explores the tumultuous transition as the old guard of Strasbourg's ruling class, an oligarchy steeped in corruption and nepotism, clashed with the rising tide of revolutionary fervor among the populace. The author expertly weaves together the personal stories of Strasbourg's citizens with the broader political and social upheavals of the period, shedding light on the challenges and triumphs of integrating a proud and independent city into a larger nation.
