- Abstract
"The Glory and the Sorrow; a Parisian and his World in the Age of the French Revolution" is a fascinating volume that explores the life of Adrien-Joseph Colson, a Parisian figure during the French Revolution. Colson, a lawyer and servant of the nobility, had a complex relationship with the revolutionary movement. While he remained committed to his noble employers, he also became an ardent revolutionary and participated in political life. The book provides insights into Colson's personal trajectory and offers a glimpse into the turbulent social and political histories of late Eighteenth-century France.
