Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History of the Commune of 1871 The following translation of Lissagaray´s "Histoire de la Commune" was made many years ago, at the express wish of the author, who, besides making many emendations in his work, wrote nearly a hundred pages especially for this English version. The translation, in fact, was made from the "Histoire de la Commune" as prepared for a second edition - an edition which the French Government would not allow to be published. This explanation is necessary in view of the differences between the translation and the first edition of Lissagaray´s book. Written in 1876, there are necessarily passages in this history out of date to-day; as, for example, the references to the prisoners in New Caledonia, the exiles, and the amnesty. But for two reasons I prefer leaving this translation as it was originally. To have it "written up to date" would only be making patchwork of it. Secondly, I am loth to alter the work in any way. It had been entirely revised and corrected by my father. I want it to remain as he knew it. Lissagaray´s "Histoire de la Commune" is the only authentic and reliable history as yet written of the most memorable movement of modern times. It is true Lissagaray was a soldier of the Commune, but he has had the courage and honesty to speak the truth.
