Yet this was also a tumultuous century of political anarchy and bloodshed, where each generation of the French Revolution's 'children' would experience their own wars, revolutions and terrors. From soldiers to priests, from peasants to Communards, from feminists to literary figures such as Victor Hugo and Honoré de Balzac, Robert Gildea's brilliant new history explores every aspect of these rapidly changing times, and the people who lived through them. | | Contents note: | The Children of the Revolution; France, 1799-1870; Revolution or Consensus? : French Politics, 1799-1870; Discovering France; A Divided Society; Religion and Revolution; Le Malheur dêtre femme; Artistic Genius and Bourgeois Culture; The French in a Foreign Mirror
