A proposito di questo titolo
 In this captivating first volume of Thomas Carlyles acclaimed trilogy, The French Revolution A History, originally published in 1837, we delve into the dramatic events leading up to the fall of the Bastille and the consequential shift of Louis XVI from the opulence of Versailles to the heart of Paris. Carlyles unique narrative style—immersive and present-tense—brings the historical figures and tumultuous events to life, providing a gripping account that remains relevant today. While modern listeners may encounter a flurry of unfamiliar names and references, such as Oeuil de Boeuf for the kings palace and Jean Jacques referring to Rousseau, Carlyle’s storytelling swiftly captivates and educates. Join us on this riveting journey through one of historys most transformative periods. - Summary by Peter DannCopyright Early Modern Mondiale Politica e governo Scienza Scienze politiche Scienze sociali

    Europe and the Faith by Hilaire Belloc.

    The Catholic brings to history (when I say "history" in these pages I mean the history of Christendom) self-knowledge. As a man in the confessional accuses himself of what he knows to be true and what other people cannot judge, so a Catholic, talking of the united European civilization, when he blames it, blames it for motives and for acts which are his own. He himself could have done those things in person. He is not relatively right in his blame, he is absolutely right. As a man can testify to his own motive so can the Catholic testify to unjust, irrelevant, or ignorant conceptions of the European story; for he knows why and how it proceeded. Others, not Catholic, look upon the story of Europe externally as strangers.
