Answer:
Print played an important role in the French revolution.
However, some believe print didn't really matter in the upbringing of the revolution. Historians continue to argue on this matter.
- Print materials like newspapers and books popularised the ideas of the enlightenment thinkers.They criticised the sacred authority of church and the despotic power of the state. They gave a critical commentary on tradition, superstition and despotism in contemporary society. The writings of Voltaire and Rousseau were read widely. Those who read them developed an attitude of rationality and reasoning.
- Print created a new culture of dialogue and debate. Everything was questioned and re-evaluated. People looked at the world with a new view of criticism and questioning in their eyes.
- By the 1780s, there was an outpouring of literature, cartoons and caricatures which circulated everywhere. These caricatures showed how the lower classes did all the hard-work and how the monarchy and the rich was only involved in sensual pleasures; which led to the growth of hostile sentiments against the monarchy. In this way, print helped people to think differently.
