I'm writing a paper on the Revolution in pop. culture and various Schools of Thought about the Rev. So breaking it down, I've come across these. I know I'm missing a bunch, but what do they stand for?
Taine: Uber Dantonist
Revisionist: Schama, Furet, tends to be very royalist
Brits (caryle, Thompson and Hampson): Caryle, very anti-rev. Thompson, anit-danton, Hampson anit-Saint-Just
American (Palmer, Curtis): Pro rev
I figure that the latest Marie Antoinette movie counts as revisionist. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Thanks
