Robespierre Mark Ames

Where and when he was born Born on May 6, 1758. Born at Arras

Who he was Robespierre was a member of the 12 man committee of public saftey.

Childhood was born on May 6th, 1758, in Arras where his father was based as an advocate. Robespierre and his three younger siblings were brought up by diverse relatives after their father dramatically lost his way in life after the death of his wife in childbirth in 1767. Robespierre was educated for a short time at a College in Arras and then in Paris initially at the very prestigious College of Louis-le-Grand and later at the College of Law.

Manhood As he had grown into manhood Robespierre had become a fanatical devotee of the social theories of the French philosopher Jean Jacques Rousseau. He and some thirty other like-minded deputies became associated in a "Society of the Friends of the Constitution" later known as the Jacobin Club. In April 1790 he was elected president of the Jacobin Club and became increasingly popular as an enemy of the monarchy.

Death of king Louis XVI Robespierre talked to king and decided that he should die so the country could live. Citizen Louis was subsequently sent to the guillotine on 21st January 1793.

Promotion On July 27th he was elected a member of the chief executive body, the Committee of Public Safety. Although Robespierre was from one point of view only one of twelve members of the committee he was the only one who, through the full support he enjoyed from the Jacobin Clubs and the Commune of Paris, represented a close link to the more radical supporters of the Revolution.

Reign of Terror France was in turmoil, and with the aim of restoring order and reducing the danger of invasion from abroad, Robespierre, backed by the committee, proceeded to ruthlessly eliminate all whom he considered to be enemies of the Revolution, both extremists and moderates. This policy led to the so-called Reign of Terror and to the execution of the revolutionary leaders Jacques René Hébert (March 24th 1794) and Georges Jacques Danton(April 6th 1794)

Arrested On July 27th 1794 Robespierre was accused of tyranny, barred from speaking at the national convention, and was placed under arrest.

He tried to shoot himself but missed and spent his last few hours with his jaw hanging off.

Guillotined Robespierre was guillotined, as a victim of terror, on July 28, 1794.

Reign of Terror The reign of terror was led by Robespierre.

When it started The reign of Terror began after the death of Louis XVI in 1793.

Big member of the reign of Terror The guillotine was often referred to as "Madame Guillotine" or "The National Razor"
