Discours par Maximilien Robespierre — 5 Fevrier 1791-11 Janvier 1792 by Robespierre
"Discours par Maximilien Robespierre — 5 Fevrier 1791-11 Janvier 1792" by Robespierre is a collection of political speeches written in the late 18th century. The work encompasses several discourses delivered by Robespierre, an influential figure during the French Revolution, addressing key themes such as civic rights, the judicial system, and the freedom of the press. The book is an essential historical account that captures Robespierre's ardent advocacy for justice and civil liberties,
reflecting the tumultuous spirit of a nation in search of democracy and equity. The opening of this collection introduces Robespierre’s stance against existing proposals for the reorganization of juries and the judicial system. He critiques the suggested systems as being flawed and potentially unjust, arguing for the necessity of citizen juries that are equitable and representative. He emphasizes the importance of genuine civic participation in legal matters and positions himself as a vigilant defender of the rights of the people. Robespierre warns against the dangers of centralized judicial power and expresses his belief that the judicial institution should reflect the values of freedom and justice inherent in the revolutionary spirit. This initial discourse lays the groundwork for his subsequent arguments, revealing his perspective on the fundamental principles that should govern justice in a free society.
