The Trial of King Louis XVI, 1792-1793
The arraignment of the king was essentially a political act. It resulted in completely opposite evaluations by both contemporary and later observers. The present collection presents the entire corpus of all public interventions by representatives in the National Convention during the trial from November 1792 to January 1793. A six-volume compilation of speeches and interventions during the trial constitutes the nucleus of the collection. It contains some 300 original writings which originally appeared separately.
