Summary: "Histoire de la Révolution française, Tome 06" by Adolphe Thiers is a historical account written in the early 19th century. This tome delves into the events surrounding the French Revolution, particularly focusing on the actions of the National Convention and key figures such as Robespierre and Saint-Just as they consolidate power and navigate the political tumult that arose from the revolution. The opening of the work introduces a critical period of the French Revolution as it discusses the aftermath of recent executions that aimed to quell dissent and those perceived as enemies of the state. It portrays the inner workings of the Committee of Public Safety as it solidifies its authority, highlighting the harsh measures taken against both ultra-revolutionaries and moderates. Central themes include the maintenance of power through fear and manipulation, leading to the promotion of a new civic religion that acknowledges the existence of a Supreme Being and the immortality of the soul, reflecting the intertwining of governance and ideology during this chaotic phase in French history. This establishes a backdrop for understanding the ideological struggles and the mobilization of the revolutionary forces during this significant historical moment.
