Passage de Babeuf chez Michelet

Abstract: In his Histoire du XIXe siècle (1872–1874), Jules Michelet devoted the first chapters of his study to the Directory, stating, "Jacobinism ends. – Socialism begins." It is this passage, crucial for the French historian, that engages us here. More specifically, it is Michelet's intimate relationship with Gracchus Babeuf, who was guillotined in 1797 for his active participation in the Conspiracy of the Equals, that holds us here. Babeuf's passage through Michelet's life was a key aspect of his profound love of the people. It was also one of the deepest roots of his political and philosophical thought. Abstract: Dans son Histoire du XIXe siècle (1872–1874), Jules Michelet consacre les premiers chapitres du vaste ouvrage au Directoire, en indiquant : « Le Jacobinisme finit. – Le Socialisme commence. » C'est ce passage, crucial pour l'historien, qui nous occupe ici ; mieux encore, c'est la relation intime que Michelet entretient depuis son enfance avec Gracchus Babeuf, mort guillotiné en 1797 pour sa participation active à la Conjuration des Égaux, qui nous retient. Passage donc de Babeuf chez Michelet, qui nourrit son amour du peuple et qui laisse des traces indélébiles dans toute son œuvre et sa pensée.
