He also examines the key players in the revolution, including Robespierre, Danton, and Napoleon Bonaparte, and their roles in shaping the course of events.Throughout the book, Mignet provides a balanced and nuanced perspective on the revolution, analyzing both the positive and negative outcomes of this pivotal period in French history. He explores the impact of the revolution on French society, from the abolition of the monarchy and the establishment of the First Republic, to the rise of Napoleon and the eventual restoration of the Bourbon monarchy.Overall, The History of the French Revolution from 1789 to 1814 is a comprehensive and engaging account of one of the most significant events in European history. Mignet's careful analysis and attention to detail make this book an essential read for anyone interested in understanding the causes and consequences of the French Revolution.Bonaparte, who had destroyed the liberty of the press, created exceptional tribunals, and who had departed more and more from the principles of the revolution, felt that before he went further it was necessary to break entirely with the liberal party of the 18th Brumaire. In Ventose, year X. (March, 1802), the most energetic of the tribunes were dismissed by a simple operation of the senate. The tribunate was reduced to eighty members, and the legislative body underwent a similar purgation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
