For those who read French and for those who don't


http://www.humanite.fr/+-Revolution-francaise-220-ans-apres

The heritage is still alive. Articles on revolutionaries and other people somehow related to the French revolution, including Marat, Brissot, Hérault de Séchelles, Roux, Couthon, Saint-Just,  Hébert, Prieur, Choderlos de Laclos, Sade, Toussaint Louverture (the leader of Haitian revolution and anti-slavery movement, the so-called black jacobin), David, Olympe de Gouges and many others. 

Our fellow-revolutionary Estellacat has kindly volunteered to translate any of these articles to English for those who can't read French. Just express your wish in a comment and she will do it for us.

I'm a little late in responding to this, but...I'd be happy to have a translation of the ones about Couthon, Prieur, and Saint-Just. If you only have time to get to one or two, that's fine - the schoolwork is probably starting to pour in right about now, so I understand if you're busy!

Of course I'll translate them; I wouldn't have offered if I had no time.
