Compelled to make Terror the order of the day, the Convention decreed a series of emergency measures. From price controls to the arrest of all suspects, the principles of 1789 were temporarily suspended. The Terror had begun!

This episode explores the Revolutionary Army, the Law of the General Maximum, and the Law of Suspects. It also examines the arrest of Jacques Roux and the Enraged (Enragés) in September 1793.

Episode Extras

1.80.1 The Enraged Explored

What do historians make of the Enraged? Heroic champions of the sans-culottes? Or short-sited activists unable to achieve their means? This episode extra explores not only the legacy of the Jacques Roux and his allies, but also debates surrounding their impact (or lack thereof!)

1.80.2 Unpacking the Terror

With the Terror commencing in September 1793, how do historians view its causes? Was this series of emergency decrees driven purely by circumstances, or were other factors at play? This episode extra unpacks competing theories surrounding the Terror’s commencement.
