ISBN: 9780195003703 / Angielski / Miękka / 1967 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. What kinds of people were in the crowds that stormed the Bastille, marched to Versailles to bring the king and queen back to Paris, overthrew the monarchy in August 1792, or impassively witnessed the downfall of Robespierre on 9 Thermidor? Who led these crowds or mobilized them to action? What did they hope to achieve, and how far were their aims realized? Earlier historians have tended to view the revolutionary crowd as an abstraction--"people" or "mob" according to the writer's prejudice--often even as the personification of good or evil.

Men and women differ in their sexual natures because throughout the...
