History of Madame Roland is a biography written by John Stevens Cabot Abbott and published in 1858. The book tells the story of Marie-Jeanne Roland, a prominent figure in the French Revolution. Madame Roland was a highly educated and intelligent woman who played a significant role in the political and intellectual circles of her time. She was a prolific writer and a passionate advocate for the principles of liberty, equality, and fraternity. The book follows her life from her childhood in a provincial town to her rise to power in Paris during the Revolution. It recounts her experiences as a salon hostess, her involvement in political clubs, and her role in the Girondin faction of the National Convention. The book also explores Madame Roland's personal life, including her marriage to Jean-Marie Roland, her close friendship with the philosopher Condorcet, and her tragic end on the guillotine. Through a combination of historical research and personal anecdotes, Abbott provides a vivid and engaging portrait of one of the most fascinating figures of the French Revolution.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
