Summary

Octave Beliard: Jean Jacques Danton

The book about Danton, one of the leaders of the revolution, presents the character and main moments in the life of this revolutionary tribune, from early childhood to death.
This book is more of a "romanticized" biography than a historical study based on archival material, and it is written with a lot of knowledge and many of its pages are exciting.
Zorno presented his childhood in the small town of Arsis on the coast, his first steps in Paris, the environment in which he moved, lawyers, as he himself was, cafes, clubs, congregations, women and marriages. Before us are the Constituent Assembly, the Legislative Assembly and the Convention with the Committee of Public Safety, the atmosphere of parliamentary sessions and clubs, that "ocean with turbulent waves", the people in them, then and tomorrow's leaders, relations, struggles and rivalries between them, friends and opponents. personal and political.
In this romanticized biography, an extraordinarily lively and turbulent temperament is outlined. There seems to be something primal unbridled about Danton. Danton is a passion. It manifests itself both in childhood and in youth, it follows him in his life novel until the tragic end. He is a giant full of vitality who loves life, drinks it from a full glass, is prone to pleasures and, like Mirab, is not deprived of anything. He needed a lot of money because he spent a lot of it. He was "generous". During the revolution he was not as poor as Mara, he was not as incorruptible as Robespierre. If we add to his nature and temperament that he was messy and frivolous, many things become even clearer.
