Albert Mathiez

Albert Mathiez (1874, La Bruyre, Haute-Sane 1932) was a French historian, known for his work on the French Revolution. He was a student of Alphonse Aulard. His La Rvolution franaise appeared in three volumes (1922-1924). He wrote it as a socialist, pro-Robespierre interpretation, where Aulard had been pro-Danton. He held the Sorbonne chair in French Revolutionary Studies and was the founder of the Societe des Etudes Robespierristes, which led to the creation of the highly regarded journal Annales historiques de la revolution francaise.
