Zusammenfassung:
Considerations on the Principal Events of the French Revolution was a winner in the Scholarly/Reference category at the Chicago Book Clinic's 2009 Book & Media Show. Germaine de Staël's voice, which Napoleon Bonaparte tried to silence by censorship and banishment, is a unique and important contribution to revolutionary historiography. Considerations on the Principal Events of the French Revolution , considered Madame de Staël's magnum opus, became a classic of liberal thinking, making a deeply original contribution to an ongoing political and historical debate in early nineteenth-century France and Europe. Germaine de Staël (1766-1817) rose to fame as a novelist, critic, political thinker, sociologist of literature, and autobiographer. Aurelian Craiutu is Professor in the Department of Political Science at Indiana University, Bloomington.
