An Astounding Resource,
By ManicPanic (CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Women of Paris and Their French Revolution (Studies on the History of Society and Culture) (Paperback)
For anyone researching the French Revolution this book would be an invaluable resource. Quotes, statistics and geographical interpretation of the riots, all are included in the realistic, sometimes tantalizing look at the struggles of Parisian women and their roles in the French Revolution. Not just a fleshed out version of a history texts after-thought, as happens so many times with books about the women or minorities of history - this book gives us the real forces behind some of the major events of the revolution - forces that include the demands of disenfranchised women eager to take part in the new Sovereignty of the people.
The tons of research done by Godineau shows not only in the immense bibliography but also in the completeness of the themes discussed in the book. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in the French Revolution or the history of Women. |
