''History of Madame Roland'' is a biography of the French revolutionary figure, Madame Roland, written by John Stevens Cabot Abbott and published in 1858. The book chronicles the life of Madame Roland, born Marie-Jeanne Roland de la Plati�����re, from her childhood in the French countryside to her rise as a prominent figure in the French Revolution. Abbott explores Madame Roland’s intellectual pursuits, her marriage to fellow revolutionary figure Jean-Marie Roland, and her involvement in the Girondist faction of the Revolution. The book also delves into her imprisonment and eventual execution during the Reign of Terror. Throughout the biography, Abbott paints a vivid picture of the political and social climate of France during the late 18th century, and the role that Madame Roland played in shaping it. The book is a fascinating look at one of the most important and influential women of the French Revolution.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
