The Legacy of the French Revolution, Hardback Book

The Legacy of the French Revolution Hardback

Edited by Ralph C. Hancock, Gary L. Lambert

Hardback

Description

This collection of essays by prominent American and French scholars explores the political, cultural, and social implications of the most fundamentally formative modern event, the French Revolution.

The contributors contend that the vocabulary and spirit of the French Revolution has exercised greater influence on the modern world than the more moderate and by all appearances more successful American Revolution.

The Legacy of the French Revolution delineates the distinctive characters of the American and French revolutions and analyzes the different variants of democratic political traditions that have evolved from this seminal event.

This book will be of particular interest to political theorists, political historians, and students of democratic theory.
