Question

Explain how did the freedom of speech and expression under the revolutionary government in France promote the ideals of liberty and equality into everyday practises

Answer 1

Answer:

The Constitution of 1791 began with a declaration of the rights of man and citizen. Freedom of speech and expression were enshrined among these rights which were deemed to be natural and inalienable. These were put into practice in everyday life in the following ways:

Censorship was abolished soon after the storming of Bastille in 1789.

In the old regime all written material could be only published after undergoing censorship.

In the new dispensation, newspapers, pamphlets, books and printed pictures flooded the towns and were soon circulated in the countryside in France.

Discussion of events and changes that were occurring in France took place freely.

Opposite views of events were also expressed.

People thronged to watch plays, songs and festive processions which enabled them to understand the ideas of liberty, equality and justice.

mark me as the brainliest :)

Answer 2

Answer:

France during 1789 saw changes in the lives of men, women and children.

Abolition of censorship happened in the summer of 1789.

• Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen proclaimed freedom of speech

and expression to be a natural right. Freedom of press meant opposing views of

events could be expressed.

• In the Old Regime all written material and cultural activities – books,

newspapers, and plays – could be published or performed only after they had

been approved by the censors of the king. Newspapers, pamphlets, books and

printed pictures described and discussed the events and changes taking place in

France.

• Plays, songs and festive processions attracted large numbers of people. This

was one way they could grasp and identify with ideas such as liberty or justice

that political philosophers wrote about at length in texts which only a handful

of educated people could read.

All the changes allowed the people in France to practice ideals of liberty and equality

in their daily lives.
