1.)Maximilien François Marie Isidore de Robespierre is one of the best-known and most influential figures of the French Revolution. He largely dominated the Committee of Public Safety and was instrumental in the period of the Revolution commonly known as the Reign of Terror, which ended with his arrest and execution in 1794.
2.)Politics should be lead by people with means of reason and enemies of terror. Terror is swift and severe
3.) this supported the revolution because everyone thought that they would be the next to be killed.
1. Maximilien Robespierre was a Jacobin leader, that had to slowly gain his pain. Both him and his followers set out to bulid a "republic of virtue."
2. Maximilien talked about the leading of people and said how he thought it should be done. Also he compared revolution to terror and virtue.
3. The up raise of the number of executions, shows that people didn't believe in the revolution. As the number raises, the population went down. People would get killed and tortured iuf they did not believe or help with the revolution.
1.) Maximilien Robespierre was the leader of France who slowly gained power and wiped out every trace of
France's past. His period of rule was known as the reign of terror.
2.) The "republic of virtue" was Maximilien's idea of how he wanted France to be. He changed many things from France's past to make it his way.
3.) They probably supported the revolution out of fear of being killed rather than actually believing in the Revolution.
1)slowly gained power
2)the basic of popular government in the time of revolution is both vitrue and terror
3)that it was good to poor during that era
1) A Jacobin leader who slowly gained power in the early months of 1793.
2)A definition of the Yin and Yang would be best describing of this. Like, the two oposites attract and the government would both need both terror and virtue to balance it.
3) That the higher class people suggested that the poor people were the revolutionaries. Thus to bring down a rebelious group, show examples of your power by eliminating suspicious people to scare the enemy.
1.He was a leader and slowly gained power. Robespierre and his supporters set out to build a republic of virtue by wiping out every trace of Frances past.
2.virtue without which terror is murderous, terror without which virtue is powerless. Terror is nothing else than swift,severe,indomitable justice,it flows,then,from virtue.
3.The upper classes wanted to stop the revolt by killing them off so they would set an example to them what would happen.
1.)He was a Jacobin leaader. He slowly gained power. His supporters set out to build a "republic of virtue" by wiping out every trace of France's past.
2.) I think that he is saying if the government is making good decisions in time of peace, then will revolution time comes, they will make good decisions and really bad decisions as well.
3.) It suggests that higher up people wanted to stop the revolution by killing them so the poor people wouldn't revolt against them. The lower class people would be too scared to revolt.
1. On September 21st a recently elected new assembly that called itself the Convention declared that the French monarchy was abolished and France was a Republic. On September 25th the Convention proclaimed that the "French Republic is one and indivisible".
2. If the basis of popular government in time of piece is virtue, the basis of popular government in time of revolution in both virtue and terror: virtue with out which terror is murderous, terror without which vertue is powerless.
3. That the upper class were starting the middle class and the lower class to start making eachother mad and they started killing people. the upper class also killed them to strike fear in the the 2 lower classes to tell them '' HEY IF YOU START REBELLING WE WILL KILL YOU ALL'' they were demonstrating there power by killing so now one will mess with them.
1) Maximilien Robespierre was a ruler of France that wanted to build a "republic of virtue". To do this he wanted to get rid of all traces of France's past. He wanted to put terror in the people of France to keep them loyal.
2) He believed that virtue and terror was the way to rule his people. He believed that terror came from virtue and that both were required in order to make people remain to their ideas.
3) He wanted to show that he was the ruler and that everyone was under him. He killed so many people in order to demonstrate his power. Maximilien wanted everyone to fear him and to obey him out of fear.
1.Maximilien François Marie Isidore de Robespierre(6 May 1758 – 28 July 1794) is one of the best-known and most influential figures of the French Revolution. He largely dominated the Committee of Public Safety and was instrumental in the period of the Revolution commonly known as the Reign of Terror, which ended with his arrest and execution in 1794.
2.it is talking about how important morals and political primciples are to domestic policy.
3.the poor people had enough troubles already with having to pay taxes. being exicuted didn't help the problem a bit at all. now that they are mad about paying taxes and the unfair taxes, they are now mad about being exicuted for doing nothing at all. this triggers someting in them saying that they really need to defend their freedome or they will die.
1) Was one Jacobin leader, he slowly gained power in the early months of 1793. He and his supporters set out to build a "republic of virtue" by taking out every trace of France's past.
2) His Committee of Public Safety were the ones that had the "enemies" and he justified his terror by suggesting that it enabled the French people to remain true to their ideas.
3) People of all classes had grown weary of the Terror. They were also tired of the high prices for bread, salt, and other things. The upper middle class became rich in 1789.
1.)Maximilien Robespierre is one of the best known and most influential figures of the French Revolution. He was arrested and executed in 1794.
2.)
3.) It supports that the middle class and the urban poor had been possibly a major part of it. They might have been fighting in it.
