Grey History: The French Revolution & Napoleon
William Clark
History isn't black and white, yet too often it's presented as such. Explore the ambiguities and nuances of the French Revolution.
- 43 minutes 51 seconds1.80 The Terror Begins
Compelled to make Terror the order of the day, the Convention decreed a series of emergency measures. From price controls to the arrest of all suspects, the principles of 1789 were temporarily suspended. The Terror had begun!
This episode explores the Revolutionary Army, the Law of the General Maximum, and the Law of Suspects. It also examines the arrest of Jacques Roux and the Enraged (Enragés) in September 1793.
Episode Extras
What do historians make of the Enraged? Heroic champions of the sans-culottes? Or short-sited activists unable to achieve their means? This episode extra explores not only the legacy of the Jacques Roux and his allies, but also debates surrounding their impact (or lack thereof!)
With the Terror commencing in September 1793, how do historians view its causes? Was this series of emergency decrees driven purely by circumstances, or were other factors at play? This episode extra unpacks competing theories surrounding the Terror’s commencement.

31 October 2024, 9:50 pm - 1 hour 9 minutesJoint Episode: Thomas Paine with History on Fire
Explore one of the most unique and controversial Founding Fathers! Together with Historian Daniele Bolelli (History on Fire Podcast), this episode examines the life and impact of Thomas Paine. The conversation covers Paine's influential works, 'Common Sense’, 'Rights of Man’, and ‘The Age of Reason’, and highlights his pivotal role in the American and French revolutions. Despite his popular contributions to revolutionary thought, Paine's later work resulted in infamy, leaving him isolated at the end of his life. Daniele and William also discuss his complex relationships with notable figures like George Washington.
You can find History on Fire on all podcast apps. I recommend the Joan of Arc series!
