Answers
Maximilien Robespierre (1758-1794) was a lawyer and, from 1789, an increasingly important and controversial political figure during the French Revolution. He was born in the Artois capital Arras on 6 May 1758, to a lawyer father and a mother who was the daughter of a brewer. Maximilien was conceived before their marriage. His mother died in childbirth in 1764 and his father left the four children in the care of relatives, who ensured that Maximilien received a strong education, especially in the classics, then in law. He won a scholarship to the College of Louis-le-Grand in Paris 1769-81, then returned to practice law in Arras. He was successful as a lawyer, although often living in modest circumstances.
The convocation of the Estates-General for 1 May 1789 changed his life. Robespierre was narrowly elected as a Third Estate deputy for Artois after a protracted and angry election period. He embraced the ‘patriot’ cause at Versailles and, after October 1789, in Paris as a member of the National Assembly. He spoke consistently and frequently on the need to follow the full implications of the principles of 1789. His great popularity by 1791 temporarily collapsed in early 1792 as he opposed the campaign for war with Austria and Prussia but, in the military and political crisis that followed, Robespierre was turned to as a member of the Committee of Public Safety empowered by the National Convention in the Year II (1793-94) to take emergency measures to save France, the Republic and the Revolution itself. The regime would subsequently be called ‘the Terror’.
