Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Maximilien François Marie Isidore de Robespierre was a major figure of the French Revolution. A lawyer from the town of Arras, he was an advocate of human rights as defined by Rousseau, whom he admired deeply. As a "lawyer for the common people", he gained respect and prominence among the locals, who eventually elected him to represent them in the Estates-General, France's pre-revolutionary representative body. Shortly after the Estates-General convened in 1789, the Revolution began with the Tennis Court Oath, in which the representatives of the common people decided to push for a constitution and governmental reform for France. Robespierre was influential in the formation of the intended new government and became a prominent member of the radical Jacobin Club (political "clubs" were in some ways parallel to political parties in modern democratic states). |
