Did you wake up this morning thinking ‘the sun is shining, the birds are singing, oh, if only I had 6000 pages of untranslated speeches, letters and writings by Robespierre, then this day would be perfect’?

Man, I need to get back to the frev. Don't get me wrong, I'm still "in it", I'm still reading stuff about it, I'm still thinking about it but it hasn't been, like, my main interest in two years now, and I'll be writing my Bachelor's thesis on it in the upcoming months, probably. I got into the thesis seminar grou0 with "Liberty" as its main theme, and the conducting professor specialises in the (counter)revolution, so hopefully he helps me out a bit.
Any book on the frev you're reading currently or you could recommend to me? I'm more or less up to date with everything by Peter McPhee and Hervé Leuwers. The books can be either in English or French! Thanks a lot!

Until then I had thought each book spoke of the things, human or divine, that lie outside books. Now I realized that not infrequently books speak of books: it is as if they spoke among themselves. In the light of this reflection, the library seemed all the more disturbing to me. It was then the place of a long, centuries-old murmuring, an imperceptible dialogue between one parchment and another, a living thing, a receptacle of powers not to be ruled by a human mind, a treasure of secrets emanated by many minds, surviving the death of those who had produced them or had been their conveyors.
The Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco

Some characters from The Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco. William and Malachi are my favourite ones so far!
I’m currently 150~ pages into the book and I’m loving it immensely. Haven’t watched the movie though, so I’m still free from influence from it.

“There were terrible massacres, but in the end the rebels were forced to surrender, Dolcino and his people were captured, and they rightly ended up on the pyre.” “The beautiful Margaret, too?” Ubertino looked at me, “So you remembered she was beautiful?”
The Name of the Rose, Third Day, After Compline -- In which Ubertino tells Adso the story of Fra Dolcino, after which Adso recalls other stories or reads them on his own in the library, and then he has an encounter with a maiden, beautiful and terrible as an army arrayed for battle.
(where else to find me)
