EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful image captures the pivotal moment in French history when the Supreme Being, represented by the figure of Supreme (L'Être Suprême), was being taught to the next generation in schools, as part of the revolutionary fervor during the Reign of Terror in 1794. The Supreme Being, proposed by Maximilien Robespierre and approved by the Convention, was intended to replace the old Christian deity in the hearts and minds of the French people. The placard, displayed prominently in classrooms, depicts a serene and benevolent Supreme Being imparting wisdom to a group of attentive students. The Christian cross, a symbol of the old faith, lies broken at the feet of the Supreme Being, symbolizing the revolutionary shift in religious beliefs. The use of this image in schools was a deliberate attempt to inculcate devotion to the new deity and reinforce the revolutionary ideals of liberty, equality, and fraternity. Robespierre, a key figure in the French Revolution, believed that the Supreme Being would unite the French people in their pursuit of a new and better society. This image, therefore, represents a significant turning point in the French Revolution, as the country moved away from its traditional religious beliefs and embraced a new, revolutionary faith. The Supreme Being, however, was a short-lived deity, and with the fall of Robespierre in July 1794, the idea was soon abandoned. This image is a poignant reminder of the revolutionary fervor that swept through France during the Reign of Terror and the attempts to create a new society based on revolutionary ideals. It also highlights the role of education in shaping the beliefs and values of future generations.
