The Fourteenth of July and Danton: Two Plays of the French Revolution is a book written by Romain Rolland. The book consists of two plays that are set against the backdrop of the French Revolution. The first play, The Fourteenth of July, is a drama that revolves around the events leading up to the storming of the Bastille on July 14, 1789. The play follows the lives of various characters, including a revolutionary leader, a royalist sympathizer, and a commoner, as they navigate the tumultuous political climate of the time.The second play, Danton, is a tragedy that focuses on the life of Georges Danton, a prominent figure in the French Revolution who was eventually executed by the revolutionary government. The play explores Danton's rise to power, his relationship with Robespierre, and his eventual downfall.Both plays are characterized by Rolland's signature style of blending historical accuracy with poetic language and vivid imagery. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the French Revolution, as it provides a unique perspective on the events and personalities that shaped this pivotal moment in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
