Religion, Revolution, and Regional Culture in Eighteenth-Century France: The Ecclesiastical Oath of 1791

Religion, Revolution, and Regional Culture in Eighteenth-Century France: The Ecclesiastical Oath of 1791

Timothy Tackett
4.2/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
The imposition of a loyalty oath on French clergymen in the winter of 1790 was a turning point in the Revolutionary decade after 1789. What is more, there is a remarkable similarity between the geography of this oath--the regional percentages of those who accepted or rejected it--and the geographic patterns of religious practice and political behavior persisting into the twentieth century. Timothy Tackett investigates the origins and nature of this fascinating phenomenon.



Originally published in 1986.

The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
