书籍简介

法国大革命的自由和平等原则仍然塑造着我们关于公正社会的观念——尽管在两百多年之后，它们的含义比以往任何时候都更具争议性。 在《新世界开始》一书中，杰里米·D·波普金对这场革命进行了引人入胜的描述，让读者置身于导致推翻君主制和建立新社会的激烈辩论和暴力之中。 我们见到了米拉波、罗伯斯庇尔和丹东，他们才华横溢，复仇心强； 我们目睹了路易十六的越狱失败和被处决； 我们看到妇女要求平等权利，黑人奴隶从犹豫不决的革命者手中夺取自由； 我们跟随拿破仑从恐怖统治的废墟中崛起。

基于数十年的学术研究，《新世界的开始》将成为法国大革命的专业论述。

The French Revolution’s principles of liberty and equality still shape our ideas of a just society—even if, after more than two hundred years, their meaning is more contested than ever before. In A New World Begins, Jeremy D. Popkin offers a riveting account of the revolution that puts the reader in the thick of the debates and the violence that led to the overthrow of the monarchy and the establishment of a new society. We meet Mirabeau, Robespierre, and Danton, in all their brilliance and vengefulness; we witness the failed escape and execution of Louis XVI; we see women demanding equal rights and Black slaves wresting freedom from revolutionaries who hesitated to act on their own principles; and we follow the rise of Napoleon out of the ashes of the Reign of Horror.

Based on decades of scholarship, A New World Begins will stand as the definitive treatment of the French Revolution.
