The document summarizes a short story about a political transition in a small French town from a monarchy to a republic. An enthusiastic doctor leads republicans to force the mayor to abdicate, which he does without resistance. However, despite achieving their goal, the doctor is disappointed that no one else seems excited by the change except for him. The story suggests that people are resistant to change even if it may benefit them.

The French Republic from humiliating defeat, the Paris Commune, and the end of royalism to republican success and three crises, to the coming of the Great War.
A Time of Turmoil
The French Revolution was one of the most influential events of modern history. The ten year period from 1789 to 1799 when France went from a Monarchy to a Republic, to a Reign of Terror, to Dictatorship was one of the most tumultuous times in European history.
Myth and Reality
Much myth and romantic legend has been written on what some politicians would like the French Revolution to have been, but the reality was that the French Revolution was a monstrous horror. In the name of “liberty, equality, fraternity or death!” over 40,000 people lost their heads to the guillotine, 300,000 people were publically executed by firing squads, drownings and other methods of mass murder and ultimately many millions died in the 25 years of war and upheavals that resulted.

A coup d´etat
1. A Coup d´Etat
Vincent Alcaraz Guy de Maupassant
José Manuel Castilla
2. Introduction
The town of Cannevile, France, was in transition frombeing a Monarchy to a
Republic. Dr. Massarel lead the republic movement and went to the Mayoralty
with his subordinates to make the Mayor abdicate. The mayor quit without
any resistance. The Dr. was overwhelmed that finally they were free, but no
one apart fromhim seemed to be excited.
3. Thesis Statement
• In spite of the circumstances people refuse to accept change even if they
may benefit from it.
4. The character personalities
• Dr. Massarel is a Republican who is really excited that the Monarchy had
fallen in France after years of having an emperor. Dr massarel had
expressions such as “The Republic has been proclaimed, the emperor has
been taken prisoner, France is saved! Long live the Republic!” and “Hurrah!
hurrah! Victory crowns the Republic everywhere.” He stayed overwhelmed
until he noticed that nobody cared and his actions weren´t being rewarded
not even with joy.
5. Second Element: Political Alussion
• The author makes a critique of the political change in France during the XIX
century without mentioning it directly, but actually showing it through the
characters emotions and reactions.
6. Conclusion
• As a conclusion Guy de Maupassant describes the political setting of France
during the XIX through the eyes of a citizen that is in favor of change.
Nevertheless the short story ends with a baffling turn of events.
