Review # 1 was written on 2019-04-24 00:00:00 Jani Kurki Jules Michelet's A History of the French Revolution is one of the best studies of this historical event that I am aware in a field distinguished by powerful authors. Written long before Peter Kropotkin's, Daniel Guerin's, and Albert Soboul's accounts of the same events, it was the first to capture the spontaneous organization of ordinary people, women and workers, in the streets as distinct from focusing on statesmen imagined as progressive. His poetic imagery and his unique philosophy of history makes one experience a unique radical perspective on the events not merely a scholarly one.
