Of The Great Incidents Of History, None Has Attracted More Attention Or Proved More Difficult Of Interpretation Than The French Revolution. The Ultimate Significance Of Other Striking Events And Their Place In The Development Of Mankind Can Be Readily Estimated. It Is Clear Enough That The Barbarian Invasions Marked The Death Of The Classical World, Already Mortally Wounded By The Rise Of Christianity. It Is Clear Enough That The Renaissance Emancipated The Human Intellect From The Trammels Of A Bastard Mediaevalism, That The Reformation Consolidated The Victory Of The "New Learning" By Including Theology Among The Subjects Of Human Debate. But The French Revolution Seems To Defy Complete Analysis. Its Complexity Was Great, Its Contradictions Numerous And Astounding. A Movement Ostensibly Directed Against Despotism Culminated In The Establishment Of A Despotism Far More Complete Than That Which Had Been Overthrown.

There Are Two Ways In which The French Revolution May Be Considered. We May Look At The Great Events Which Astonished and Horrified europe And America: The Storming of The Bastille, The March On Versailles, The Massacres Of September, The Terror, And The Restoration Of Order By Napoleon. The Study Of These Events Must Always Be Both Interesting and Profitable, And We Cannot Wonder That Historians, Scenting the Approaching battle, Have Sometimes Hurried over The Comparatively Peaceful Country That Separated them From It. They Have Accepted easy And Ready-Made Solutions For The Cause Of The Trouble. Old France Has Been Lurid In their Eyes, In the Light Of Her Burning country-Houses. The Frenchmen Of The Eighteenth Century, They Think, Must Have Been Wretches, Or They Could Not So Have Suffered. The Social Fabric, They Are Sure, Was Rotten Indeed, Or It Would Never Have Gone To Pieces So Suddenly. [more]
