1789年到1799年,法国经历了一场革命。为了准确描述这期间发生的重大事件和变化,本书将现实与历史数据建模相结合,以“万花筒”的形式重新解读这场持续十年的历史,力图使读者了解到法国大革命的各个层面。
除了数据设计师朱利安·佩尔蒂埃的卓越才华之外,著者让·克莱芒·马丁通过三十年间的研究,对这一时期做出了有力分析,使本书不仅有宏观的视域,也不乏具体个案的研究,甚至还有代表人物的小传。伟大的革命时代和变迁须在不同尺度从多个维度来理解,书中所涉及的几十个主题——君主制的衰落、恐怖统治、反革命、妇女的地位、军事革命、奴隶制……都证明了这一点。

From 1789 to 1799, France experienced a revolution. In order to accurately describe the major events and changes that took place during this period, this book combines reality with historical data modeling to reinterpret this decade of history in a "kaleidoscope" format, in an effort to provide readers with an understanding of the various aspects of the French Revolution.
In addition to the outstanding talents of data designer Julian Pelletier, author Jean Clement Martin's powerful analysis of the period, based on three decades of research, gives the book not only a macro perspective, but also specific case studies and even biographical sketches of representative figures. The great revolutionary times and changes must be understood on different scales and from many dimensions, and the dozens of themes covered in the book - the decline of monarchy, the reign of terror, counter-revolution, the status of women, the military revolution, slavery... All proved it.
