Roederer is a historical account written in the early 19th century. The book addresses the French Revolution's origins, causes, and spirit, emphasizing the quest for equality of rights as its primary objective. Roederer reflects upon the significant transformations that occurred in France, analyzing the complex interplay of social, economic, and ideological forces that culminated in this pivotal moment in history. At the start of the book, Roederer provides an overview of the prevailing misconceptions regarding the French Revolution, arguing that the revolution emerged from deep-seated social and moral changes long before legislative action took place. He asserts that the revolution was not a sudden occurrence but rather a culmination of centuries of development within the mindset of the populace, particularly within the middle class. The author highlights that the desire for equality was the driving force behind the revolution, intertwined with the broader concepts of liberty and property, and touches on the various historical events and writings that shaped its trajectory. This foundational perspective sets the stage for a detailed exploration of the revolution’s impacts and implications in the subsequent chapters.
