Features: The lectures in this book were delivered by Sir Acton while he served as the Professor of Modern History at Cambridge University. These lectures were given during the academic years of 1895-1896, 1896-1897, 1897-1989, and 1898-1899. The French Revolution of 1789-1795 was one of the special subjects for the history honors examination at Cambridge University at that time, which determined the time frame of these courses. Discussions on the literature of the French Revolution were usually conducted in a conversational classroom setting or delivered as standalone lectures. Some related scattered pieces were compiled and printed as appendices. The titles of each lecture were proposed by the editor.
