Examining the psychological journeys of the deputies from the Estates General and National Assembly, this book explores the origins of the French Revolution through their personal letters and diaries. By analyzing the collective biographies and cultural experiences of over a hundred deputies, the author challenges the prevailing revisionist views, highlighting significant differences in wealth, status, and culture between the Third Estate and the Nobility before and after 1789.
