The Social Interpretation of the French Revolution (Wiles lectures, 1962) Book

Alfred Cobban's Social Interpretation of the French Revolution is one of the acknowledged classics of post-war historiography. Cobban saw the French Revolution as central to the 'grand narrative of modern history', but provided a salutary corrective to prevalent social explanations of its origins and development. A generation on this powerful historical intervention is now reissued with a new introduction by the distinguished scholar Gwynne Lewis. It provides students with both a context for Cobban's arguments, and assesses the course of Revolutionary studies in the wake of The Social Interpretation.Read More
