Bøger i Bicentennial Reflections on the French Revolution serien

Both an analysis of the Bastille as cultural paradigm, and a case study on the history of French political culture. This book examines the storming and subsequent fall of the Bastille in Paris on July 14, 1789, and how it came to represent the cornerstone of the French Revolution, and serve as a symbol of the repression of the Old Regime.
