28: Marie-Jeanne Roland, “Manon” “Madame Roland” Part 1
Join us for part on of the life of Marie-Jeanne "Manon" Roland de la Platière. She was born in 1754, and was a French intellectual and political activist known for her influential role in the years leading up to the French Revolution. Raised in a modest but cultured family, she was educated by her father, which fostered her love for literature and philosophy. At 19, she married Jean-Marie Roland, a prominent economist and politician, which positioned her within Parisian intellectual circles. Manon became an ardent advocate for reform, using her keen intellect and persuasive writing to support Enlightenment ideals and criticize the Ancien Régime. Her salon became a hub for revolutionary ideas, setting the stage for her pivotal role in the tumultuous period that followed.
