Added: a very detailed Biography of Jean-Paul Marat by E. B. Bax.
This has been made possible by Mr. Crawford whom I would like
to thank here. Mr. Crawford has scanned and corrected the
whole book, which represents a probably the work of several
weeks (I've done that myself several times).
If there's something I've learned by making and maintaning this site,
the it's the reliability paradigm. Internet publishing means that
there is only one thing which is reliable: the absence of reliability.
I have lost my site twice because the provider suddenly stopped
webhosting. Then I made copys of the whole site at different locations:
if you can't find the pages here, there is at least a copy elsewhere (mirroring).
Last weekend this happend again: a hard disk crash at f2s.com followed
by an incomplete server re-installation actually inhibits much of the
functionality of this site. I am sorry for the inconvenience but there
is little I can do about. Bad things happen and I hope someone is working
on the issue. A working mirror exits at http://felix2.no-ip.org/ - bookmark the address.
[site is offline now]
Download of Zip-files works again.
Zip-files are compressed archives of several files.
I am actually preparing pages about the french revolutions of
- 1789 (started)
- 1848 and
- 1871 (Commune of Paris)
I need your feedback. This is a request to comment on this
site, what should be changed, removed, added, completed.
Tell me what you think. Imagine you were talking to a wall.
You sing a song, you tell a faery tale, but nothing happens.
I won't sing, don't get frightend. But I would like to know
Your opinion. Just use the
discussion form [offline now].
Before setting up this form I had to find the means to protect
you of "harvesters". Harvesters are programs looking around
in the web in quest of e-mail addresses. Once they find new addresses
the victims get unsollicitated advertising e-mails. Though there
is no guarantee that the procedure works 100 %, I did my best.
Of course I won't tell how. And of course, on this page you won't
find any ads either.
