9 Thermidor (Françoise Brunel)
More than any other memorable date of the revolutionary decade, 9 Thermidor remains prisoner of its historiographical legend. In the « speech of the Revolution on itself », the event is immediately presented under the dual appearance of a last rupture and of a founding episode. Thus, the declaration then made by Collot d'Herbois, president of the Convention, affirms: « it was not an insurrection in their manner [the one of the counter-revolutionaries] which was necessary, it was an insurrection against tyranny, and it is you who have made it. It will have its place in history, this insurrection which has saved the patrie ». The tone is set, formalised by the Proclamation to the French people which was presented, in the morning of 10 Thermidor, by Barère in the name of the Committees of Public Safety and of General Security: « on 31 May, the people made its revolution ; on 9 Thermidor, the National Convention made its [own] ; liberty has applauded both equally ». Thus, its actors themselves erected 9 Thermidor as an event while, in their desire for an immediate legitimisation, they used 31 May 1793 as a historical and revolutionary referent. Obscured by this interpretation « in the heat of the moment », understanding 9 Thermidor is even less easier as the very proceedings of the action are not as clear as they may seem at first. It is not a matter of beginning a detailed study of it again here, but let us attempt to determine whether these journées of July 1794, beyond their immediate consequences – more than 100 persons were executed –, constitute a watershed in the history of the Revolution or not.
Historiography has retained three categories of actors: the Parisian popular movement, the Convention (or, more precisely, the ratio of power between the Plain and a Montagnard group in a state of « disintegration ») and, finally, the two Committees of Public Safety and of General Security. Limiting oneself to Paris may seem restricted and distorting, but let us recall that 9 Thermidor was a Parisian and parliamentary « journée » and that the provinces initially only took part as echoes (the addresses to the Convention).
Since the « drama of Germinal », the sans-culottes, as Albert Soboul has shown, had lost their political initiative and autonomy. Three indicators illustrate the ambiguities of the popular movement in the late spring of Year II. The attempts to revive the cult of Marat brought about the ban of fêtes sectionnaires on 27 Prairial. Filed on 1 Messidor, the petition of the Section de la Montagne, repeating its adhesion to the Constitution of 1793, constituted an implicit remise en cause of the revolutionary government. Finally, the campaign of fraternal banquets is, above all, testament to a vigorous moderate offensive. At the outset of Thermidor Year II, Paris was a city in turmoil, politically stirred up by the arrests of the militant sans-culotte Legray and the former minister Bouchotte, as well as socially weakened by the hungry gap and the publication of the maximum of salaries (5 Thermidor). What about the Convention? One has often emphasised the « conspiracy » that was incited by the deputies of the Plain, hostile towards the social policy was carried out since Ventôse Year II, and certain representatives on mission who had been recalled for their excesses (Fouché, Fréron, Tallien, etc). In fact, the opinion of the deputies of the Convention is difficult to grasp (many of them were on mission), and it is wise not to give credit to posterior Mémoires. The Plain hardly manifested before Fructidor Year II, and the Convention does not seem to have experienced stormy debates between the sessions of 22-24 Prairial and 8 Thermidor.
Concerning the two Committees, one has spoken of internal rivalries and divisions, but, here again, it is necessary to force oneself to forget the declarations of their former members, firstly denounced without effect by Le Cointre in Fructidor, later successfully in Frimaire Year III. According to the classical analysis of Albert Mathiez, the Committee was composed of « déchristianisateurs » who were struck by the Cult of the Supreme Being: this is possible, but not determining. More decisive in the hostility of a part of its members towards the Committee of Public Safety was undoubtedly the law of 27 Germinal Year II, which entrusted the latter with the supervision of the constituted authorities, created the General Police Bureau and decided, in accordance with the Ventôse Decrees, the creation of six popular commissions charged with the « sorting » of suspects: dependent only on the Committee of Public Safety, they escaped the authority of the Committee of General Security, which possibly delayed their formation (only two of them sat in the Muséum). But, all things considered, was it a matter of serious political antagonisms or a conflict of jurisdiction? The divisions of the Committee of Public Safety have also provoked numerous commentaries. According to the tradition, Robespierre was absent, as he said himself on 8 Thermidor, for « more than six weeks ». Now, it seems that his absence was shorter, from 13 Messidor to 4 Thermidor. As to the argument of the supposed divisions between a « right wing » (Carnot and Lindet), a « centre » (the « Robespierrists ») and a « left wing » (Billaud and Collot), it seems hardly convincing. Even if Carnot indeed showed himself to be in favour of wars of conquest and hostile towards social policy, this is not the case for either Billaud or Collot, who were both essential actors of 9 Thermidor.
Obscured by the post-Thermidorian writings, the prodromes of the journée thus raise more questions than providing explanations, and the account of the facts is suspect of analogous distortions: written in accordance with the decree of Brumaire Year IV, the Procès-verbal of the session did not escape criticism more than the journals, the testimonies or the Mémoires. « 9 Thermidor » is only the beginning of a permanent session of the Convention, which was closed on 14 Thermidor at four o'clock in the evening, when one proclaimed: « Paris is quiet ». Furthermore, the parliamentary crisis built up on 5 Thermidor, when Barère gave a report on the « reconciliation » of the Committees of Public Safety and of General Security: some accepted following Carnot and depriving Paris of four gunner companies, the others declared wanting to accelerate the formation of the popular commissions and to entrust Saint-Just with the report on the institutions, which had been announced three months earlier. Two days later, in a new report « intended to enlighten the good citizens on the current circumstances, by presenting to the French people a comparative record of our situation at the time of 31 May 1793 and of our situation on 7 Thermidor », Barère spoke of the rebirth of the factions and emphasised, in this regard, the unity of the committees. What happened then? Here, one enters the realm of hypotheses. According to A. Mathiez, Robespierre did not believe in the sincerity of the reconciliation and, deciding to explain himself to the Convention, was thus heading towards suicide: this was the long speech of 8 Thermidor (repeated, in the evening, at the Jacobins) wherein he denounced and accused without naming, and castigated certain deputies, e.g. Cambon and Mallarmé. Cambon replied: « It is time to tell the whole truth ... » 9 Thermidor already began on the 8th. On the next day, the session was opened at eleven o'clock in the morning by the reading of the correspondence. Saint-Just took the floor at noon but, being interrupted by Tallien, could not continue his speech. Then, everything happened very fast: Billaud denounced Dumas, Sijas, Hanriot and the general staff of the Parisian National Guard, whose arrest he obtained. A décret d'arrestation was passed against Maximilien Robespierre, the presumed leader of the conspiracy, upon Louchet's request, the deputy of Aveyron (and a Montagnard) ; Saint-Just, Lebas and Couthon, who were declared accomplices, were put under arrest afterwards, then Augustin Robespierre. The « normal » procedure was a décret d'accusation and the transfer before the Revolutionary Tribunal. The session was closed at five o'clock in the evening.
The second stage unfolded at the Maison-Commune, where the mayor, Fleuriot-Lescot, the national agent Payan and the vice president of the Revolutionary Tribunal, Coffinhal, invited the members of the General Council to return to their sections in order to call to arms and sound the alarm. What follows is the history of a failed insurrection. Around six o'clock in the evening, all sections were alerted, but only sixteen sent men to the Place de Grève (among them the Section Marat, in spite of having been deeply affected by the « drama of Germinal ». At that moment, however, as the Jacobins had declared themselves en insurrection, the Commune was numerically superior. At seven o'clock, the Convention resumed its session and outlawed the five deputies, as well as the Commune of Paris and Hanriot. The Commune liberated the Robespierrists, who arrived at the Hôtel de Ville at one o'clock in the morning of 10 Thermidor, while the gunners and sectionary militants, having remained without instructions, gradually dispersed. The Convention organised the reaction. The Jacobin Club was closed, and the sections successively came to swear allegiance. Léonard Bourdon entered the Maison-Commune with gendarmes (among them the famous Méda, the hero who was « produced » in order to give more dramatic intensity to the scene): all deputies, except for Saint-Just, seem to have attempted suicide. The Convention resumed its session at ten o'clock in the morning of 10 Thermidor. The two Committees ordered the Revolutionary Tribunal, stripped of its judiciary function as the accused had been outlawed, to « do justice » during the day. The guillotine was erected on the Place de la Révolution. At half past five, the twenty-two convicted persons left the Conciergerie, and two hours later, everything was over ; 71 accomplices were executed on 11 Thermidor, and 12 more on the following day. Counting Lebas, who was dead before being executed, and Coffinhal, who was guillotined on 18 Thermidor, the « batch » counted 107 victims.
To conclude, it seems useful to reflect on the often suggested « historical necessity » of 9 Thermidor. The study of the post-Thermidorian period shows that the « déjacobinisation » of France was less easy and considerably slower than one has suggested, that it required original political techniques and that, in the end, it was necessary to resort to both brutal repression and a « coup d'État » (the writing of a new Constitution) in order to shatter the hope for this « democratic Republic », whose traits were outlined in the spring of Year II. In this sense, 1795 broke with 1793 as much as with 1789. Strictly in terms of events, it is appropriate to pose the question: who « made » 9 Thermidor? In the parliamentary journée, thirty-five deputies intervened against the « Robespierrists »: only two sat in the Plain (Féraud and Lozeau), thirty-three in the Montagne. In Year III, sixteen of them would be « Montagnards réacteurs » and fifteen would become « last Montagnards » – while most of them were condemned to prison or deportation as « accomplices of Robespierre », two « butted out ». Barras, contrary to the legend, did not play any role before being appointed – in his capacity of general – to command the troops of the Convention. This shows the ambiguity of 9 Thermidor, which only reveals the extraordinary heterogeneity of the Montagne. If it wasn't for the personality of those who were its victims, Thermidor would at worst appear like a « non-event » that occurred between two major turning points, the elimination of the factions in Germinal Year II and the « reactionary » offensive which began in Frimaire Year III.

Gustave LeGray:
I was recommended to look at a photographer called Gustave LeGray, who was born near Paris and trained as painter - it was only later that he took up photography. Even before making the marine images, he became one of the most renowned pioneers of the new art. His architectural, landscape and portrait photographs, his writings, teaching and inventions were all highly influential. However, the seascapes were, and are still, Le Gray’s greatest public, commercial and aesthetic success. Below are some examples of his work:
They are very simple and seem uninterrupted, they don't involve people and they look like very clean seascapes.
Collodion-on-glass negatives were introduced in 1851. Le Gray adopted them in preference to paper negatives to achieve maximum sharpness coupled with even faster exposure times. -- This was very innovative for the time, and helped to bring further attention to his work.
When I think of the vision for my project, they look completely different to his images, however I do like the simpleness of his images. This is something I hope to capture through my project - striking seascapes and landscapes!
I want my images to be rememberable. This is slightly out of my comfort zone because I am used to shooting fashion/portraiture. However, this is something I am extremely excited about and I am confident that I’ll capture some amazing shots.
I have seen that LeGrays images are at the Victoria and Albert museum - so I am going to make a trip to see them in person - I will keep you posted.
