Révoltes #1 - Révolution française, l'alignement des planètes

We'll begin our series of interviews with history, specifically in 1789. Because the French Revolution is, throughout the world, THE defining revolutionary moment. A complex period, the turning point of which particularly interests us, between May and July 1789. What sparked the uprising? Behind the armed struggle, what forces and mechanisms enabled the overthrow of the nobility and the King? And how did the people acquire the desire and the capacity to do so? A major societal uprising, on which Sophie Wahnich, a historian of the French Revolution, specializes. She explores this pivotal moment in history with us and draws parallels with our own time to learn from it.
