Ciudadanos no es la versión trillada de un régimen muriendo de enfermedad y decrepitud, sino el reflejo de la transformación que cambió la historia de Europa para siempre: el paso de hombres y mujeres de «sujetos» a «ciudadanos».

A través de la historia social, cultural y política, Schama encuentra el marco de su historia en imágenes y artefactos, cerámicas y calendarios y, con su particular punto de vista, nos acerca más que nunca a la realidad humana de la Revolución Francesa.
