Considerations on the French Revolution reviewed
A long critical notice of a new work on the French Revolution by Madame de Staël. The reviewer highlights the book’s liberal outlook, historical analysis, and praise for constitutional liberty while denouncing revolutionaries. The piece contrasts the author’s praise for progress with admonitions against excesses and cites contemporary notes on safety experiments by Sir Humphry Davy and related industrial reports from Florence and England.
