The revolutionary temper : Paris, 1748-1789 / by Darnton, Robert,author.(CARDINAL)163593;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 463-519) and index."When a Parisian crowd stormed the Bastille in July 1789, it triggered an event of global consequence: the overthrow of the monarchy and the birth of a new society. Most historians account for the French Revolution by viewing it in retrospect as the outcome of underlying conditions such as a faltering economy, social tensions, or the influence of Enlightenment thought. But what did Parisians themselves think they were doing--how did they understand their world? What were the motivations and aspirations that guided their actions? In this dazzling history, Robert Darnton addresses these questions by drawing on decades of close study to conjure a past as vivid as today's news. He explores eighteenth-century Paris as an information society much like our own,its news circuits centered in cafaes, on park benches, and under the Palais-Royal's Tree of Cracow. Through pamphlets, gossip, underground newsletters, and public performances, the events of some forty years--from disastrous treaties, official corruption,and royal debauchery to thrilling hot-air balloon ascents and new understandings of the nation--all entered the churning collective consciousness of ordinary Parisians. As public trust in royal authority eroded and new horizons opened for them, Parisiansprepared themselves for revolution. Darnton's authority and sure judgment enable readers to confidently navigate the passions and complexities of controversies over court politics, Church doctrine, and the economy. And his compact, luminous prose createsan immersive reading experience. Here is a riveting narrative that succeeds in making the past a living presence"--

Temper the Winds / by Hamill, Wilma.;
In a small town southern setting in 1943, ٢Temper the Winds٣ is a storyabout a widow swept up by the whirlwinds of fate. When Maggie Clay?s husband dies in a TB sanitarium, she is left with Jenny and Josey, and two dollars and thirty-four cents. Financially and emotionally set-back, she is taken by her father, Claude, to a farm life she despises, a site where she is unloved by her mother, Leona, and shielded by her father, both harboring a long kept secret about Maggie?s conception. Joseph Jameson has no intention after finishing medical school to do his father?s bidding by working by his side, practicing medicine in the one-horse town of Enfield. Nor does he plan to stayunder his father?s thumb. Could literally bumping into a young and beautiful Maggie change his mind? Sara Windley, the sixteen year old daughter of millionaire Emmitt Windley, is hidden away in a shack in the woods for several months. Is it any wonder that sheemerges phobic and a border line psychotic? ٢Temper the Winds٣ has a strong cast of colorful characters with conflicts of their own, bringing mystery, and a violent hatred, strangling Maggie?s hope for success, independence, and dreams of a new love. With almost audible southern accents, the characters come alive with touching realism?real smiles and heart rending tears, bringing Maggie to life in yet another story of powerful winds in the south.
