COLLECTION of 141 pieces, almost all relating to the Assemblée Nationale, the legislative body during the first period of the Revolution. Almost half of the 578 deputies representing the Third Estate were lawyers ! After a short struggle with the other two Estates and the King, the National Constituent Assembly was established and became the powerful legislative and constitution-making body of France. This body passed the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen, passed provisions announcing equality before the law, freedom from arrest without due process, freedom of speech and press. It was this body that decided to confiscate and nationalize the properties of the Catholic church, it replaced the chaotic structure of the Ancien regime with a rational administrative system that consisted of 83 departments, it set important judicial reform in motion by establishing a new, graduated system of tribunals in both civil and criminal cases, abolished the sale of legal offices, and introduced the elective principle for judges, the most striking aspect of these judicial reorganization was its almost total separation from the crown, and it was this body that drafted the 1791 Constitution for France, the Assemblys major contribution to the French Revolution. Many of these topics are represented here in this collection, as well as a good number of other topics the Constituent had to deal with.
