The French Revolution and the spirit of revolutions

Author's name: Gustave Le Bon Publisher: Dar Al Tanweer for Publishing and Distribution Year of publication: 2020 Literary classification: Political sciences Brief about the book: The title of the book suggests that it is not just a historical narration of the French Revolution as a historical phenomenon or a political coup, but a deep vision of the philosophy of the revolution as a social phenomenon stemming from a cognitive maturity that develops unconsciously, so the book penetrated what lies behind the noise of morals, feelings, and the vision of groups and revolutionary cells; it refuted the stages of the revolution and the fluctuations within the conscience of the rebellious nation, taking the French Revolution as a microscopic sample; so his historical perspective was more truthful and insightful, where he discussed the revolution as a creed in the souls of the revolutionaries that may harmonize or conflict with many social principles and religious doctrines.
