Politics, Culture, and Class in the French Revolution (Studies on the History of Society and Culture, 1)

Rating:
Summary: Outstanding!
Review: This is simply an excellent introduction to the new socio-cultural history. Lynn Hunt wrote _Politics, Culture, and Class in the French Revolution_ eons ago, in historiographical terms, yet it stands up extremely well. If you want to understand the simmering undercurrents of the French Revolution's grand narrative, start with this very readable, thrillingly intelligent account!
