In this episode of Meridians, we delve into the French Revolution, focusing on key historical figures such as King Louis XV, King Louis XVI, and Marie Antoinette. We explore the transformative Age of Enlightenment and its impact on French society. I'll also be highlighting advancements in electricity and the rise of progressive thinkers within the privileged class who chose to labor for societal progress instead of indulging in their wealth. Join us as we examine the social and economic conditions that led to this pivotal revolution and the cultural shifts that challenged the traditional monarchy and hierarchy in pre-revolutionary France.
