The new issue of History Lessons with Tamara Eidelman is dedicated to the Great French Revolution, those ten years at the end of the 18th century that changed the face of not only France, but also Europe and the whole world. It was the French Revolution that brought the ideas of freedom, equality, and fraternity to the world, changed the political system of France, its economic development, and its culture. It was an era of bloody battles and political terror, but it was also a time when human meanness and cruelty, as well as nobility and courage, manifested themselves with incredible brightness. *** Advertising: Master Data Science from scratch: https://clc.to/uW8LHw 45% discount with promo code Eidelman BOOKS: 1.
