Reviews
Entertaining, original and provocative. . . . [Hunt] is interested in what historians have always thought were the central political issues of the period (power, authority, legitimacy), but she approaches them by ingenious indirection. She is also a scrupulous scholar.

Synopsis
This latest work from an author known for her contributions to the new cultural history is a multidisciplinary investigation of the foundations of modern politics. "Family Romance" was coined by Freud to describe the fantasy of being freed from one's family and joining one of higher social standing. Lynn Hunt uses the term broadly to describe the images of the familial order underlying revolutionary politics. In a wide-ranging account using novels, engravings, paintings, speeches, newspaper editorials, pornographic writing, and revolutionary legislation about the family, Hunt shows that politics were experienced through the grid of the family romance.
