Description
Fragments of Revolution examines the interplay between French cultural production and revolutionary activity in the century of unprecedented turbulence from the Revolution of 1789 to the anarchist interventions of the 1890s. Drawing on the disciplines of history, literary criticism, art history, and critical theory, the articles in this volume investigate the vexed representation of revolutionary political agendas in "texts" that include not only prose narrative, newspapers, and political oratory, but also images, calendars, acts of vandalism, and terrorist bombings.
