Monthly Discussion Point: Maximilien Robespierre
Because it's his birthday in a few days. Discuss any and all aspects of his life, his work, his views, his reputation, and anything else you think of!

In Greek most students would only have read extracts from Aesop, Lucian, Homer, and Demosthenes.
What no Plato? They didn't study Plato? Or am I getting this stupidly wrong?
In any case, Teenage Feminist!Robespierre would be some kind of superhero. An inaccurate one, but it amuses me none the less. XD
I realy like the idea of inaccurate superhero!Robespierre. Really, he could turn up mysteriously wherever acts of social injustice are taking place and fight the oppressors with his ninja-legal aid lawyer skills and superior reason. Or something, as long as he didn't have to run fast or shoot straight. He's even got the absent-minded cover-persona, the geeky glasses and the animal side-kick. Yes, yes, it is late, very late I should probably lie down, but why should the Royalists get all the inaccurate superhero fun?...sorry about that.

Apparently not. At least, Brockliss doesn't mention him. Odd, isn't it?
That would be adorable. If I had more skill with that kind of thing, I would totally make a comic out of that.
