The French Revolution was a period of radical, social and
political disorder in France (1789/1799) that affected French, marking the decline of
powerful monarchies and churches and the rise of democracy and nationalism.
In England initial support for the Revolution was first idealist, but when the
French failed to live up to expectations, most English intellectuals gave up to
the Revolution. Instead of searching for rules governing nature
and human beings, the romantics searched for a direct communication with nature
and treated humans as unique individuals not subject to scientific rules.
On 10 August 1792 the Paris Commune stormed the
Tuileries Palace and massacred the Swiss
Guards.
