"The French Revolution remains one of the most examined events in world history. Most historians would argue that it was the first "modern" revolution, an event so momentous that it gave the word revolution its current connotation of a political and/or social upheaval that marks a decisive break with the past and moves a society in a forward or progressive direction. When revolution shook the foundations of the Old Regime in France, shock waves reverberated throughout the Western world." "Historical Dictionary of the French Revolution examines the causes and origins; roles of significant - and often colorful - people; crucial events and turning points; significant institutions and organizations; and economic, social, and intellectual factors involved in the conflict. An introductory essay, chronology, and comprehensive bibliography complement the more than 400 dictionary entries, making this a great resource for students and history enthusiasts alike."--BOOK JACKET.
