The author describes the chaos and violence that characterized the Reign of Terror, including the executions of prominent figures such as Maximilien Robespierre and Georges Danton. He also provides insight into the political climate of the time, including the rise of the Jacobin Club and the establishment of the Committee of Public Safety.Hesdin’s journal is a valuable historical document that sheds light on a dark period in French history. It provides a firsthand account of the events that took place during the Reign of Terror, from the perspective of someone who was intimately involved in the political and social upheaval of the time.
