Abstract
The aim of this paper is to investigate the image of the ancient republics in the early months of the French Republic, with particular attention to the debate that precedes the adoption of the Constitution of the Year I (24 June 1793) and to the publications on historical themes discussed or signaled by the press in the summer of 1792. I intend to show how the history of the ancient republics has been not just a laboratory where shape or simulate the efficacy of new ideas and concepts, but also a practical guide for those who lived the shocking reality of the revolution.File in questo prodotto:
