This book is the first product of an investigation of the conflicting social theories of the French Revolution. The writings of these men disclosed several unexplored connections between the old regime and the contemporary world. Their testimony offered an unaccustomed view of the French Revolution and an illustration of the revolution's interaction with the main currents of European thought. Contents: (1) Who will defend the old regime?; (2) The shock of 1789; (3) Deputies of the right; (4) Resistance to the constitutional monarchy; (5) Adversity; (6) Joseph de Maistre; (7) Louis de Bonald; (8) Rene de Chateaubrand; (9) Troubled orthodoxy; (10) Social theories in motion; References. This is a print on demand edition of an important, hard-to-find publication.
