description: This book is designed to move students quickly to the exciting thematic subjects at the center of current debate on the Revolution and the Counter-Revolution. After a short narrative focusing on continuities and ruptures inside the Revolution the creation of a new political culture is covered in chapters on institutions political participation and rhetoric. Nigel Aston deliberately takes a wide perspective and is concerned throughout with the reception of Revolutionary values in Europe in the French colonies and the United States.
