History

1. The well-known historian Simon Schama once quipped that “1794 was just 1789 with a higher body count.” By this he meant that something about the French Revolutionary was inherently bloody and radical from its beginnings. By his account the Reign of Terror was neither a corruption of the original Revolutionary vision nor the outcome of events such as civil and foreign war, but rather the inevitable outcome of events. Using Sieyes’s 1789 pamphlet “What is the Third Estate?” and Robespierre’s 1794 speech “Principles of Political Morality” speech, examine whether there is any truth in what Schama has said. After first explaining Seiyes and Robespierre’s different historical and ideological contexts, consider their areas of difference and/or similarity. Questions you may want to consider include: What similarities and differences do we see in terms of how the nation is conceived and the policies necessary to defend it? Who are the enemies and what must be done with them?

History

While Americans cling to the Civil War, they’ve forgotten most of the rest of their history. There

Revolution. Create an essay where you discuss some of the reasons for this, as stated by the
author’s stories.

June Wells, Melly Meadows, Mauriel Joslyn. How does their approach to the War differ from
that of men in the book?
Many Southern whites revere the rebel battle flag as a symbol of the valor and sacrifice of their
ancestors. To many African-Americans, the same flag is a hated symbol of segregation and
white supremacy. Create an essay that discusses this topic with examples from stories in the
book: Is there any middle ground? Which of the states in the South have navigated this
minefield most successfully?
Horwitz writes about the killing of Michael Westerman while flying a Confederate flag from his
truck, in Todd County, Kentucky. What are the social and emotional reasons why Westerman’s
killing becomes such a flashpoint for Southern anger, both black and white?
The subtitle to Horwitz’s book is “Dispatches from the unfinished civil war.” In what ways isthe war unfinished, according to the stories noted in the book?
