 © Constitutional Amazons: Jacobin Women's Club in the French Revolution
In the eyes of male Jacobins, women's clubs had done more than enter the public sphere of politics; they had questioned the nature of the feminine, created contesting discourses about the strengths and weaknesses of sensibilité, and claimed that public political participation increased their moral and intellectual ability to wield political influence in private relationships.
Although Jacobin women often referred to themselves as the weaker sex and sometimes admitted that they were easily led astray, by 1792 and 1793 the women's speeches began to express the certainty that women were being transformed by revolutionary rationalism.
The suppression of women's clubs in the fall of 1793 would lay the groundwork for the continued exclusion of women from official politics and for the fuller development of the domestic ideology of the nineteenth century.

 Jacobin Club - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
To this day, the terms Jacobin and Jacobinism are used as pejoratives for left-wing revolutionary politics.
The last attempt to reorganise Jacobin adherents was the foundation of the Réunion d'amis de l'égalité et de la liberté, in July 1799, which had its headquarters in the Salle du Manège of the Tuileries, and was thus known as the Club du Manège.
The name "Jacobins", given in France to the Dominicans (because their first house in Paris was in the Rue St Jacques), was first applied to the club in ridicule by its enemies.

As late as 1799 the Anti-Jacobin described the second edition of Joan as “treacherous”, a product of a “seditious” rather than a “poetic spirit” (Anti-Jacobin Review 3: 121).
Southey’s overt parading of his revisionist intentions, combined with the radical politics espoused in his first published epic Joan, inevitably elicited a response from his contemporaries.

 H-France Reviews
Depending on ones view of the Revolution, the events of 1820 appeared to be evidence either of Gods benevolence toward the Bourbons, or of the true Jacobin nature of Restoration liberals, or of an ultraroyalist cabal intent on returning to the ancien rgime.
Conspiracy became a self-fulfilling prophecy: fear of conspiracy led Restoration Frenchmen to hatch their own counter-schemes, which, in turn, reinforced the general belief in the shadowy, devious nature of politics.
First, taking issue with Pierre Rosanvallon and Sheryl Kroen, he asserts that the Bourbon Restoration was never an impossible monarchy.[1] Although its foundation was shaky, Skuy maintains that the Restoration did, in the aftermath of the assassination, succeed in establishing genuine popular support.

This system would ensure that the United Kingdom created under the acts of union would avoid the later European republican movements that followed the Jacobin revolution in 18th century France and the later success of Napoleon.
The wars led to the trial and execution of Charles I, the exile of his son Charles II, and the replacement of the English monarchy with the Commonwealth of England (1649–1653) and then with a Protectorate (1653–1659) under the personal rule of Oliver Cromwell.

 The
Many historians have followed Michelet in distinguishing 'the good Revolution of 1789' from 'the bad Jacobin Revolution of 1793-94' (the Year 2 of the Revolution, Year 1 having begun with the establishment of the First French Republic in September 1792).
I will argue that the ordinary Frenchman - and Frenchwoman - who had been virtually excluded from politics during the Old Regime, did not 'go home' in 1793, but that they provided the essential dynamic behind the political and social upheavals of the Revolution throughout the 1790s, certainly up to 1795.
Michelet's History is still well worth reading (as, indeed, is the work of his English contemporary, Thomas Carlyle whose French Revolution is probably the most original and brilliant of all the histories of the French Revolution).

In September 1793 Pattisson met and befriended the young Henry Crabb Robinson, also born in 1775, who was studying law at Colchester.

 History 14: Ideas in the Western Tradition: modern era (Hutton)
This popular insurrection was sustained by the mutual sympathies between a radical element of the bourgeoisie active in the political clubs of Paris (especially the Jacobin Club and the Cordeliers Club) and the sans culottes of Paris, who had come to dominate local (ward-level) politics.
Under the strain of these tensions, differences among the leaders of the Revolution crystallized, and these differences were epitomized in the conflict between Georges Danton and Maximilien Robespierre.
In August 1792, these radical groups succeeded in fomenting a Parisian insurrection that toppled the constitutional monarchy.

Bax carried a Jacobin tradition forward into British socialism and he also used this tradition as a yardstick against which to judge the activities of other European socialists.
This paper examines the Jacobinism of Ernest Belfort Bax, the leading Marxist theoretician of the Social Democratic Federation.
Thus, in the early years of the twentieth century, his Jacobinism not only underpinned his support for the 'internationalist' Lenin, it also underwrote his rift with the 'nationalist' German Social Democrats.

It was France [Nairn writes] which produced the most perfect, the classical order of bourgeois political democracy, thanks to the revolutionary energy of the Jacobin leadership of 1791 to 1795.
Though the content of Quattrocchi & Nairn's book concerns the explicit, practical supersession of the split between Art (poetic renderings of raw experience) and Politics (analyses of the causes of uprisings), its form re-enacts or reproduces that very split.
Nairn was not an eyewitness to the events: he was living in London at the time.

His third attempt was to use the Jacobin Clubs of Corsica, which were controlled by his brothers, to get Paoli -- who was back in power -- arrested for high treason.
Paoli was presented to Europe as the greatest statesman and constitutionalist of the age.
Corsica was thus a laboratory for social experiments by the main operatives of the Anglo-Venetian Enlightenment.

 An Uneasy Affair -- Chapter 3
In 1795 and 1796 Godwin's case for philosophical anarchism and the politics of radical agitation met head on.
The ideology of the group was simple and straight-forward and was shared by most of the Jacobin groups of the 1790s.
The London Corresponding Society, founded in 1792 by the Scottish bootmaker, Thomas Hardy, hardly seems to merit Burke's assessment in the Reflections as "the mother of all mischief." Its membership, according to Francis Place, an early official of the Society, was about two thousand; more generous estimates place it around twenty thousand.

 Romanticism On the Net 15 (August 1999)
Cobbett responded to abolition and the condition of the plantation slave through perameters defined exclusively by British domestic politics, and he articulated those responses through a rhetoric which, in its frequent enactment of a tone of outraged hysteria, was more dependent on Burke than any other influence.
The disturbances were sparked off by Jacobin sympathisers celebrating the anniversary of the storming of the Bastille.
Cobbett begins an 1804 harangue on Wilberforce's latest bill to abolish the slave trade by stating that the British public are sick of the whole debate and that 'not a few of them would consent to be deprived of the power of hearing' rather than be subjected to hearing more about it.
