Alison Patrick's analysis challenges established beliefs about the French National Convention of 1792 by examining the deputies' parliamentary behavior during its early months. Rather than focusing on distinct groups like the Plain, Mountain, and Gironde, she assesses the convention as a unified body, revealing that many accepted generalizations may require reevaluation. By correlating the deputies' actions with their backgrounds, Patrick provides a nuanced understanding of the convention's dynamics and character.
