| Synopsis: |
Since the 1970s, the historiography of the French Revolution has experienced a revolution of its own. Utilizing developments in such areas as anthropology and critical theory, scholars have begun to ask new questions and devise new ways of understanding the period. This is a collection of 17 articles which originally appeared in the "Journal of Modern History". Contributors include Keith Michael Baker, Suzanne Desan, Bill Edmonds, Francois Furet, Vivian R. Gruder, Paul Hanson, James N. Hood, Lynn Hunt, David Lansky, Colin Lucas, John Markoff, Mona Ozouf, Alison Patrick, Jeremy D. Popkin, William H. Sewell, Jr., Theda Skocpol, Timothy Tackett, and Dale Van Kley. In addition, an introduction by the editor discusses the evolution of the history of the period and how the individual contributors have shaped the debate. This volume not only chronicles the rise and fall of the French Revolution but also introduces the reader to the different approaches being employed by historians working in the field. The result is a volume on the French Revolution that offers a combination of information and opinion, narrative and interpretation. |
