When History Becomes Personal: Two Cities on the Brink
What does it mean to live in a world tearing itself apart? In 1775, London and Paris stood as twin reflections of dysfunction-both magnificent and rotting from within. England's king and queen ruled with "large jaws and plain faces," while France's monarchs bore "large jaws and fair faces." This mockingly similar description reveals a shared blindness: both regimes convinced themselves things were "settled forever," even as warning signs flashed everywhere. London's streets crawled with armed robbers who terrorized even the Lord Mayor in broad daylight. Paris aristocrats required three servants just to prepare morning chocolate-one to pour, one to stir, one to present. Meanwhile, a nobleman's carriage struck and killed a child, and the Marquis tossed a gold coin as compensation for the "inconvenience" before driving away. A woman stood watching, knitting silently, her eyes never leaving him. Her name was Madame Defarge, and she was recording everything. This wasn't just inequality-it was a powder keg awaiting a spark.
