Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book untangles the complex outbreak of the French Revolution, taking the reader back to the period preceding the 1789 storming of the Bastille. The author provides a rich historical tableau, showcasing the mounting tensions and conflicts between the French people, their monarchy, and the looming threats from abroad. Through the author's analysis of a wide range of primary sources, this book traces how foreign powers, particularly Austria, fueled tensions and sought to undermine France, while the common French people became increasingly impoverished and disillusioned with the monarchy. Against this backdrop, this book puts forth the idea that, contrary to traditional narratives, the French Revolution wasnât born out of a popular desire for violence or bloodshed, but instead was driven by a collective yearning for liberation from oppressive forces. It was the common French people who comprised the largest and most determined revolutionary forceâ"an idea that challenged the prevailing view of the time.
