Synopsis
This book provides a new interpretation of political thought and political economy in France from the death of Louis XVI to the July revolution of 1830. The clash between modern republicanism and other theories of governing societies is the background to a thorough interpretation of the life and writings of Jean-Baptiste Say, the most famous political economist of the post-revolutionary era., Republicanism and the French Revolution reassesses Jean-Baptiste Say's political economy by locating the author's ideas amidst the intellectual upheavals of Old Regime and revolutionary France. Traditionally Say has been portrayed as a rather staid figure, the archetypal liberal and classical political economist devoted to Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations. This study reveals the historic Say to have been altogether different; a passionate and committed republican intellectual and French patriot, he was as opposed to Britain's constitution, commerce, and political culture as he was to Bonaparte's First Empire. The relationship between Say's political thought and political economy, evinced in the full range of his writings from 1789 to 1832, is scrutinized for the first time, elucidating the true origins of his republicanism. This derived from a rich seam of political speculation among French and Genevan radicals concerning the possibility of transforming large and corrupt monarchies into modern republics whose political culture was characterized by commerce and virtue. By the 1790s such ideas had come to define the French Revolution itself, at once promising to restore French greatness and replace Britain as the leading cultural force in Europe. Say looked back to such luminaries as Diderot, Gibbon, and Franklin as members of the modern republican Pantheon and dedicated his life to formulating a political economy that would persuade legislators and ordinary citizens to embrace the republican creed., Republicanism and the French Revolution reassesses Jean-Baptiste Say's political economy by locating the author's ideas amidst the intellectual upheavals of Old Regime and revolutionary France. Traditionally Say has been portrayed as a rather staid figure, the archetypal liberal and classical political economist devoted to Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations. This study reveals the historic Say to have been altogether different; a passionate and committed republican intellectual Mediterranean superpower. In contrast to earlier studies the emphasis is on the Greek rather than the Roman perspective. The book seeks to understand the significance of Rome's Trojan origins for the Greeks by considering the place of Troy and Trojans in Greek culture. It moves beyond the more familiar spheres of art and literature to explore the countless, overlapping, local traditions, the stories that cities told about themselves, a world often neglected by scholars.HBD A T European history: BCE to c 500 CEHRY T Myths and mythologyScholars and students interested in Homer, Virgil, Greek mythology, Troy, classical Greece, Hellenistic history and culture, Roman Republican history, and Rome at the time of Augustus.Erskine f Andrew i A. s au t Senior Lecturer, Department of Classics a University College DublinANDREW ERSKINENR0000031007c d 2 maps22.400x14.500x3.300332Local Tradition and Imperial Power15/07/2001LYNN D 2016 09 08250.00OUPYES11.81 would persuade legislators and ordinary citizens to embrace the republican creed., Republicanism and the French Revolution provides a new interpretation of political thought and political economy in France from the death of Louis XVI to the July Revolution of 1830.
