Danton: Hot or Not?

Hi there! I've been encouraged to post here, because I believe I've got something that may be of interest to some of you.

For my birthday this year, a friend of mine dug up a copy of the Oeuvres de Camille Desmoulins. It's absolutely amazing. And since it isn't the easiest book in the world to get, I'm going to be typing it out and posting it for other people to read. This may take a while, but I mean to update at least every few days. If you're interested, it'll be at [livejournal.com profile] cordelier. The first four sections of La France libre are already there.

It is entirely in French, so I apologise to anyone not fluent, but I can do very bad translating on a very small scale if asked. Discussion of any sort is of course very welcome. :D

I hope this is of some interest!

-Claire

Dear Claire,

Thank you so much for your intentions!
"Oeuvres de Camille Desmoulins", I hardly believe my eyes. This book is definitely NOT easy to get nowadays! :)

"I'm going to be typing it out and posting it for other people to read".
Do, please, it will be so nice of you!

"..in a junk shop in Paris.." Desmoulins. In a junk shop... Oh, my. *nearly fainted* :) God luck with the great work! I'm looking forward.

"God luck" - not a bad mistake... Not bad at all! :D :D
