Críticas:

"It is good to rub the revisionist sand from one's eyes and read: 'The absurdity of the assumption that the French Revolution is simply a sort of stumble on the long, slow march of eternal France, is patent.' Eric Hobsbawm is right, of course"--Gwynne Lewis "author of "The French Revolution" and "Life in Revolutionary France" " "This is a vigorous, refreshing, and learned brief on behalf of a venerable historiographical tradition. It reminds us of the obvious but often overlooked truth: that there are no definitive interpretations, certainly not of an event so primal and transcendent as the French Revolution."--David P. Jordan "author of "The Revolutionary Career of Maximilien Robespierre" " "Nobody is better qualified to explore such a theme, for the range and penetration of Hobsbawm's writings on modern European history have long been the envy and admiration of other scholars"--William Doyle "author of "The French Revolution: A Very Short Introduction" "
