Announce: Update of a Saint-Just Website

[maelicia.livejournal.com]

This website on Saint-Just was updated. There are some very interesting parts:

- An analysis of his portraits (and I think I finally know which one was kept by the Le Bas family...) + one I hadn't seen before (but it's not so pretty).

- The colourful portraits of his parents. I hadn't seen them in colour before, I think, so I'm glad. Hm. I think he has his mother's mouth and the shape of her eyes, somehow... and, the nose of both. ^^;

- A page on Robespierre's 250th -- where estellacat and I were. And, look, I found myself:



^^; I was very likely playing with my camera if you're wondering what I was doing. ._. /shameless self-pimping.



I don't know if there's anybody in France at the moment, but there is, on November 23rd (yes, that's in three days), the presentation of a play on Thermidor in Arras:

23 novembre 2008: pour les 250 ans de Robespierre, l'ARBR organise à Arras la lecture par la compagnie "A livre ouvert" d'une pièce inédite de Caroline Fregeac "THERMIDOR". Rendez-vous à 16 heures, à l'Office culturel d'Arras.

It's on the page of news where you can also find a quite girl-looking portrait of Saint-Just too, ughh ._.

a play about Thermidor.. .-_- i know. the horror.

[maelicia.livejournal.com]

Oh, yeah, but robespierriste interpretations of Thermidor are usually... well... tragically heroic and thus 'well-done'. Though depressing, but that's the unavoidable characteristic of it. >.>

that makes it a little better i suppose. I'm tired of reading horrible accounts that make me cry..;_; Thermidor will always be depressing..

I agree with you, Thermidor is big shock for robespierristes >__>

[missweirdness.livejournal.com]

it actually makes me cry. I don't wanna believe it happens...
I refuse to believe it XD just because....could they just make thermidor all nice and fluffy?

after all I would like to see this kind of playing....I watched playing about Thermidor only in films, that wasn't so good. (I mean in "la revolution francaise" film)
