The Assembly opened its August 4th session at 8pm, first hearing a draft proclamation for the restoration of public order. The Breton Club deputies then initiated their plan, calling for the abolition of feudalism. Their plan for a controlled surrender of feudal rights went awry as the session was overcome by what has been described as “patriotic delirium”, “effervescence”, “the abandonment of restraint and sense” and “an orgy of self-sacrifice”. Inflated with liberal idealism and overcome by the moment, many deputies went further than they had originally intended. One after the other, as if to outdo each other, deputies of the Second Estate stood and renounced their feudal rights. All manner of feudal dues were voluntarily surrendered: from seigneurial courts to pluralities, from game laws to the lord’s right to the first harvest. The venal sale of public offices was abolished; so too were noble privileges and exemptions unconnected with seigneurial dues. In the days that followed, the Assembly passed 19 decrees that codified the idealistic changes made on the night of August 4th.
