Produktbeschreibung
Here is the story of three overlooked revolutionary thinkers, Olympe de Gouges, Manon Roland, and Sophie de Grouchy. All three began to think and write political philosophy before the French Revolution. All three were concerned with social justice and equality and all three felt the call of the revolution.

Charting the extent of their influence for the first time, we finally see how three pivotal figures were written out of intellectual history and what we stand to gain by thinking about their lives and works.
