This seminar explores the relationship between the revolutionary process and the transformation of individual and collective identities. To change their society, the people of France and Haiti had to change their notions of who they were; to make that change of identity matter, they had to change their behavior. As the revolutionary processes in France and Haiti were closely linked, comparing them offers original insights into how such crises depend on and cause changes in identity and social practices. We will use these concepts as ways into discussions of current scholarly approaches to the French and Haitian revolutions, and as a means of understanding revolutionary movements in general. |

history of the French Revolution for general readers. It will incorporate recent scholarship on contemporaneous debates concerning the rights of women
and black slavery, explaining how they were essential to the Revolution while also placing the whole era in a broad global context.
"Free and Equal" will be the first comprehensive history of the French Revolution addressed to general readers in the English-speaking world in a generation. My aim is to bring this great historical drama alive for a broad audience, and to introduce them to the new perspectives on the Revolution that have emerged from the past several decades of new scholarship on the subject. In "Free and Equal," readers will encounter the debates about the rights of women and black slavery that were essential aspects of the Revolution, and see how they change our understanding of traditional topics such as the drafting of the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen and the Reign of Terror. My book will treat the French Revolution in a global perspective, emphasizing, for example, that the sweeping reform plans introduced by French ministers in 1787 coincided with the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, called to deal with the perceived weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation. |
