Produced by Chuck Greif, Michigan Libraries and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "The Sword of Honor; or, The Foundation of the French Republic" by Eugène Sue is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. This work is part of Sue's series, "The Mysteries of the People," showcasing his focus on the struggles of a proletarian family throughout history, particularly during the turbulent times of the French Revolution. Central to the narrative is the character John Lebrenn, who embodies the familial legacy and the fight against oppression during a pivotal era in France’s history. At the start of the novel, the setting is detailed, with a focus on a mysterious building in Paris and its significance to the Lebrenn family. Through the eyes of John Lebrenn, who reflects on his ancestors' sacrifices and the promise of a new republic, the reader is introduced to the oppressive atmosphere of the late royalist regime. The opening chapters reveal a clandestine meeting among Jews in the neighborhood who are preparing for the inevitable uprising against the establishment. As the characters navigate their interconnected fate amidst revolution, the themes of secrecy, rebellion, and the quest for justice are established, setting the tone for a narrative steeped in historical significance and social commentary.
