520 _a"France and the Republic" by William Henry Hurlbert is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the political landscape of France during the Third Republic, examining the ramifications of the republican government established in 1870 and its relationship with the French people. Hurlbert reflects on the perceived disconnect between the political elite and the broader populace, highlighting the ongoing criticism of republicanism in contrast to France's historic monarchical traditions. The beginning of the work outlines the author's motivations for traveling through various French provinces in 1889, coinciding with the "Centennial" celebration of the Revolution. Hurlbert, drawing from prior knowledge of French society and politics, seeks to offer insights into the real opinions and experiences of the common people. He sets the stage for an analysis of the political upheavals that led to the establishment of the Republic and argues that the French people's true sentiments do not align with the radical principles purportedly championed by their government. The introductory context suggests that Hurlbert intends to critique the legitimacy and stability of the Third Republic while investigating the historical misrepresentation of the French people's political desires.
