It offers an unprecedented range of documents on a compelling and timely theme, introduced by the author's characteristic insight and clarity."

This brief documentary history includes 38 documents that explore the issue of rights and citizenship in Revolutionary France and the movement that helped define modern notions of civil rights.

5.0 out of 5 stars
a truly brief and documentary history, Nov 10 2006
By J. Reinaldo L. Lopes - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The French Revolution and Human Rights: A Brief Documentary History (Paperback)
The title of the book is totally accurate. What we find in it is a brief, but also objective and straightforward, history of important issues that shaped the French Revolution and the contemporary political institution building processes. The book distributes important speeches, proposed bills and other documents in different sections, each of which dealing with specific problems (slavery, equality of citizens' rights, the status of the jews etc). It is a very useful book for those who are not scholars in the area but are looking for some reliable source. I highly recommend it.
