Le registre d'écrou de la Bastille de 1782 à 1789 by A. Bégis
"Le registre d'écrou de la Bastille de 1782 à 1789" by A. Bégis is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book recounts the workings and records of the infamous Bastille prison leading up to the French Revolution, using a detailed register that documented the entries and exits of prisoners during this turbulent period. The likely topic of the book revolves around the nature of incarceration and the political
climate of France before the Revolution. In the book, Bégis presents a meticulously compiled register that begins from May 15, 1782, and concludes shortly before the fall of the Bastille on July 14, 1789. This register details the daily life of the prison, including names and circumstances of prisoners, their treatment, and interactions with the authorities. Notable detainees, such as the Marquis de Sade and individuals involved in the political turmoil of the time, are chronicled. The work sheds light on the procedures involved in imprisonment, the secrecy maintained by the authorities, and the eventual uprising that led to the Bastille's downfall, offering a rich historical context for understanding the events leading to the French Revolution.
