Sybolism Of French Revolution.
 

Last year there was a question: Write about the sybolism of French Revolution.I would highly be thankful if somebody could help me What does it really mean?

i attempted tht question,
wht i wrote was like ,
1 french revolution was itself a symbol of rulers go beyond their limits in their atrocities the general public can also cross all limits in response.
2 the revolution was also the symbol of how revolutions can be pushed beyond their purposes so tht no sense prevails and terror let loose
3. a symbol for all aristocracy in Europe tht ppl are not ready to go on old ways of opperession and table can turn.
4 then comes the incidents like Fall of Bastille was the symbol of the fall of opperession,aristocracy and rule of ppl.
5 the march of king queen and their son depicted tht their time has run out.
6 the rights of man and civilians ,the first outcome, was the symbol of equality and rule of ppl.
7 i dont remeber the date but when aristocracy and priestly class decided to give up their priviledges ,it was the symbol of so called triumph of revolution.

many more things can be added i just wrote some to give u the idea,i hope u get the basics.ofcourse u can use ur better judgement and make the answer much more elaborate and better.

i attempeted this question last year and got 81 marks in European History paper 1(roll number 1819) what i wrote in the paper about that i m sharing with u in a nutshell

Symolism of French Revolution:-

1) Democracy

2)Secularism

3)End of Feudalism

4)Nationalism

5)Romanticism

6)Rights of Man

these are all symbolisms of French Revolutin.All these fruits of democrcy, constitutionalism etc which we even enjoy to day are the gifts of this great revolution

One very interesting fact about the significance of the French Revolution in World history is that during a visit to China, our late PM Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto asked Chairman Mao about the effects of the revolution on the world. Chairman Mao replied, " Its too early to say something."

This clearly describes the epic character of the Revolution that began in 1789.
