Solution

  • Revolutionary ideas of equality and liberty transformed the clothes people wore, the language they spoke and books they read.
  • With the abolition of censorship in 1789 and the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen in 1791, freedom of speech became a natural right. This led to the growth of newspapers, books, pamphlets and printed pictures.
  • Freedom of the press enabled voicing of opinions and counter opinions.
  • Art flourished in the form of paintings, plays, songs, and festive processions.
  • Visual and oral art forms enabled even the common man who could not read and write to relate with the ideas of liberty, equality and justice.
