France Since the Revolution: Texts and Contexts

By Claire Gorrara

Book Overview

Introduces students to modern France by exploring the emergence and development of France's five republics and the values and ideals of French republicanism. As an introductory book for undergraduates, France Since the Revolution does not assume extensive previous knowledge and contains a complete glossary of the key names used in chapters, as well as a time line for reference and suggestions for further reading. An important resource for student and teachers alike, this accessible book gives its readers a firm base in nineteenth- and twentieth-century French history and culture from which to develop more specialized interests.
