The constitution of 1791 began with a declaration if 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, newspaper,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 procession which enabled them to understand the ideas of liberty, equality and justice.
