Please choose one of the following questions to answer for this
week's assignment. When you respond to your fellow classmates
this week, please choose someone who answered a different
question than your own. This will help you familiarize yourself
with more of the material. Remember, you need to post at least
three responses to receive full credit for this assignment.
1. The French revolutionaries claimed that they were inspired
by the Enlightenment
philosophes
. Would the
philosophes
we studied back in Week 2 have approved of how the
Revolution started? What about how it developed through the
1790s?
2. In his
Reflections on the Revolutions in France,
British member of Parliament Edmund Burke predicted the
Terror. Was this a lucky guess on his part or were the seeds of
of the Terror part of the Revolution from the beginning? Why?
3. The French Revolution had a profound impact on the world,
not just within the borders of France. Why were some nations
willing to accept its gains-at least, partially-while others
resisted them? Which country do you think was the most
unwilling to accept the new ideas of
liberte,
e
galite,
and
fraternite
? Other than France, which was most willing to embrace the
Revolutionary ideals? Why?
4. Although no historian doubts the importance of the reign of
Napoleon in European (and even world) history, they do argue
over the interpretation of these events. For example, they are
torn on the role Napoleon played in the Revolution. Some argue
that he continued the spirit of the Revolution, despite creating
an Empire. Others believe he murdered it. Some include
Napoleon's reign as a stage of the actual Revolution, while
others consider it its own separate event. What do you think?
Do you think Napoleon continued and spread the Revolution?
Or do you think he destroyed its ideals when creating his
empire? Do you think his reign should qualify as a separate
historical event from the Revolution? Or was it simply another
stage in a long process?
