Summary "Histoire de l'Émigration pendant la Révolution Française. Tome 1" by Ernest Daudet is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the tumultuous period of the French Revolution, focusing specifically on the emigration of the French nobility and other royalists in response to the events unfolding at home. Daudet aims to provide a comprehensive picture of the emigration, including the key figures and episodes that defined this significant chapter in history. The opening of the book sets the stage for the narrative by recounting the events surrounding the storming of the Bastille on July 14, 1789, which symbolizes the start of the French Revolution. It introduces key characters such as Louis XVI, the Comte d'Artois, and the various nobles who fled Paris, showcasing their fears and the chaotic environment leading to their decisions to emigrate. It highlights the contrasts between the émigrés' perceptions of the revolution and the stark reality they face, as well as their hopes for a swift return to power that would soon be met with disillusionment as the revolution progressed and led to further unrest across France.
