9780807896983 / Victims, Authority, and Terror: The Parallel Deaths of D’Orleans, Custine, Bailly, and Malesherbes Paperback – January 15, 2011
by The University of North Carolina Press (January 15, 2011) (Author)
By means of a typology of authority, Kelly locates defined groups within the orbit of Jacobean hatred of all aristocracies and charts this course of logic through the collective biography of four significant victims of the Terror. Concluding that the Jacobean philosophy could not tolerate any residue of the aristocratic temper, he shows that, in essence, these men were executed because of their Old Regime connections. Kelly’s method and conclusions challenge mainstream French revolutionary historiography.
