On recommence de s'interroger sur la révolution. Le vocable vient du passé, mais il est temps de le ressaisir à la lumière du présent. Impossible de ne pas commencer par la Révolution française. Impossible de ne pas continuer par la révolution soviétique et la révolution chinoise. Sauf qu'il faut bien réveiller les somnambules : si elles sont des révolutions, alors la Révolution française n'en est pas une. Si la Révolution française est une révolution, alors elles n'en sont pas. Car les droits de l'homme existent ; ce sont les droits du corps parlant. La Terreur aussi a eu lieu. Pour opposées que soient ces deux mémoires, chacune permet d'interpréter l'autre. La Révolution française se situe à leur intersection. De ce fait, elle a approché le réel de la politique. A quoi les autres ont substitué la grise réalité de la prise de pouvoir. Ce que nous voyons du XXIe siècle permet de redéfinir les droits du corps ; la révolution, relue, permet de comprendre ce qu'il nous est permis d'espérer.

From Ancient Egypt to the Arab Spring, iconoclasm has occured throughout history and across cultures. Both a vehicle for protest and a means of imagining change, it was a rife during the tumultuous years of the French Revolution, and in this richly illustrated book Richard Clay examines how politically diverse groups used such attacks to play out their own complex power struggles. Drawing on extensive archival evidence to uncover a variety of iconoclastic acts - from the beheading or defacing of sculptures, to the smashing of busts, slashing of paintings and toppling of statues - Clay explores the turbulent political undercurrents in revolutionary Paris. Objects whose physical integrity had been respected for years were now targets for attack : while many revolutionary leaders believed that the aesthetic or historical value of symbols should save them from destruction, Clay argues that few Parisians shared such views. He suggests that beneath this treatment of representational objects lay a sophisticated understanding of the power of public spaces and symbols to convey meaning. Unofficial iconoclasm became a means of exerting influence over government policy, leading to official programmes of systematic iconoclasm that transformed Paris. "Iconoclasm in revolutionary Paris" is not only a major contribution to the historiography of so-called "vandalism" during the Revolution, but it also has significant implications for debates about heritage preservation in our own time.
