*takes a bath* ahah nice marat reference!
*takes a bath* haha nice saint-just reference
wondering if marat - that was in part sardinian - has ever said "eja" in his lifespan
Mark Antony's speech in The Tradedy of Julius Caesar is exactly what I imagine Saint-Just doing in the 'SJ survives Thermidor' AU. It genuinely works soooooo well in my head😭
I need to write a french rev version of the speech once I get more free time, because the images I get when I think of it are driving me insane
I finally - FINALLY!!! - have time to do some research on French History for fun again, and I was wondering if any of yall could recommend me historian-approved biographies (in French, English, or Italian) of these fine gentlemen:
Saint-Just, Raymond Naves, and Mallarmé
Thank you so much in advance ❤️
Concept: one single 'this is our get along shirt' shirt for everyone in the CSP
First Republic: hundreds of angry lawyers with divergent political opinions stuck in the same room (it makes for amazing entertainment)
Second Republic: "President Louis-Napoléon Bonaparte"? Sounds perfectly safe to me!
Third Republic: WE FUCKING HATE THE GERMANS 😡
Fourth Republic:
Fifth Republic: Ah, finally a republic that is actually stable! ...wait a minute-
Does anyone know how Saint -Just's name would have been pronounced?
I finally watched Un peuple et son roi, and they pronounced the "Just" as "Ju", which struck me as strange. French is my first language, and instinctively, I would have pronounced the "-st" part of his name too...
But this might be an older French pronunciation? Or maybe it would have depended on the region?
i hate thermidorian propaganda as much as everybody else in this fandom (it still feels weird to call it that, but wtv), but aesthetically speaking, robespierre becoming a tyrant and playing god with saint-just acting as his sword-weilding, bloodthirsty archangel is not without its poetic interest. I'm just saying.
Robespierre is truly looking everywhere for these foreign plots...
everytime i finish to read/watch french rev media, I add its robespierre to the chart
Frev-inspired visual novel when??? /silly

There is no way my friend actually got me to enjoy the frev... No way.

Happy birthday to the Mr. Incorruptible himself.

I finally didn't forget Maxims birthday this year so I was able to make something on his b-day. Thought this song was perfect for him since it's about a corrupt politician and Maxims literally known as THE INCORRUPTIBLE but the Thermidor propaganda did such irreparable damage to his image that it's fitting to put him into an animatic with such an oxymoron of a song. (the name itself being also a sort of oxymoron)
vampire robobobobobobobobspierre...... (inspred by smileyfaceorg's desingssnndns !! ^_^)

Salicetti, on whom the Army of Italy now also relies, took umbrage at the protection the Robespierre brothers granted Buonaparte. Perhaps the young general was somewhat clumsy in his dealings with his compatriot? Is it true that, as the Representative told the new Comité de Salut Public, he “barely looked at him from the height of his stature”? In any case, on August 6, Salicetti wrote to his colleague Berthier: “I learned of the death of the new tyrant and his accomplices, and I assure you that my heart expanded with pleasure. You know how despotically Ricord and Augustin Robespierre dominated the Army of Italy. How abuses reigned in finances...”
Buonaparte, “Robespierre's favourite”, was inevitably compromised. “I am convinced,” Salicetti added, “that when I arrive in Nice, I will find Ricord gone and perhaps Buonaparte too. If they are still in Nice, we have decided to have them arrested and sent to Paris immediately. There are strong grounds for suspicion, treason and squandering.” On the same August 6, representatives Albitte and Laporte, whom Salicetti had tracked down in Barcelonnette, called the young Robespierre's campaign plan - suggested by Buonaparte - “liberticide”.
“Buonaparte was their man,” they specify in their letter to the Committee, “their plan-maker whom we had to obey. A letter, anonymous but dated from Genoa, warned us that there was one million on the road to corrupt a general. Stay on your guard, we were told. Salicetti is on his way. He tells us that Buonaparte has gone to Genoa, authorized by Ricord. What was this general planning to do in a foreign country? All our suspicions are fixed on his head...” It is certain - Napoleon would later admit that his favor with the representatives on mission in place before Thermidor was high - that Augustin Robespierre hardly made any decisions concerning the Army of Italy before consulting the young general.
Without waiting for the Committee's orders, the three commissioners, “considering that General Buonaparte has totally lost their trust through the most suspicious conduct, and especially through the trip he recently made to Genoa”, decided as follows: “Brigadier General Buonaparte, commander-in-chief of the artillery of the Army of Italy, is temporarily suspended from duty. He will be arrested by and under the responsibility of the General-in-Chief of the aforementioned army, and taken to the Comité de Salut Public, in Paris, under safe escort. All papers and effects will be sealed...”.
