Reviews

'In Pursuit of politics is thus a welcome addition to the history of education as well as the history of French Revolutionary politics and offers new and important ways of approaching both topics.' Karen E. Carter, Brigham Young University, French History, Vol. 33, Issue 1, March 2019 'We get insightful reconsiderations of Enlightenment luminaries like Rousseau and Condorcet, their work freshly illuminated by the context of eighteenth-century public instruction; even more impressively, we learn they were in a national conversation with ordinary citizens from across France... If it may be that eighteenth-century public instruction is the history of a failure , O'Connor nevertheless shows that an account of that history can be a wonderful success.' Journal of Modern History -- .
