《法国大革命思想史》内容简介
在人类的思想史上,或许没有哪段时期比法国大革命时期更加炫目。然而,最近几十年来,研究法国大革命的历史学家认为法国大革命是政治、经济、文化和各种社会力量激发和塑造的,忽视了自由、平等这些抽象概念。在本书中,作为研究启蒙运动重要历史学家的乔纳森·伊斯雷尔,以革命思想为立足点,将法国大革命时期的各种思想和流派作为解释和探讨法国大革命起源、发展及终结的基础,为读者展示了革命思想如何从18世纪的激进思潮中生发而出,又如何将革命的领导者分化成激烈冲突的阵营,乔纳森·伊斯雷尔对秉持不同革命思想的法国政治精英之间的分歧进行了深入的分析。人类思想的交融、碰撞,共同勾勒出了法国大革命波澜壮阔的历史图景。

A brief introduction to the Intellectual History of the French Revolution
Perhaps no period in the history of human thought has been more dazzling than that of the French Revolution. In recent decades, however, historians of the French Revolution have argued that it was inspired and shaped by political, economic, cultural, and social forces, ignoring abstract notions of liberty and equality. In this book, Jonathan Israel, an important historian of the Enlightenment, takes revolutionary thought as a foothold, using the various ideas and schools of the French Revolution as a basis for explaining and discussing the origins, development and end of the French Revolution, and shows readers how revolutionary thought emerged from the radical ideas of the 18th century. And how to divide the leaders of the revolution into warring camps, Jonathan Israel provides an in-depth analysis of the divisions among the French political elite with different revolutionary ideas. The fusion and collision of human thoughts together outlined the magnificent historical picture of the French Revolution.
