Description

Explore the intellectual landscape of the French Revolution through this detailed study from Routledge. This book examines the fundamental paradox at the center of the Revolution: the attempt to liberate the minds of the people while simultaneously ensuring their loyalty to the new regime. This work reconstructs the intellectual world of the era, looking at how the radical regime challenged old institutionalized forms of Catholic worship and instruction. Even as traditional religious structures were attacked, the study shows how the regime retained a catechetical outlook. By using a dogmatic mindset as a tool for political education, the new government shaped the way information was conveyed to the public. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of how political education functioned during this period of massive social change. This book provides a clear look at the facts and implications of the tension between revolutionary ideals and the methods used to instill them in the citizenry.
