Art/Literary - 历史 / French Revolution/restoration | | German德语词条或短语： Georges Lefebvre quote | Hello - this is a quote from Georges Lefebvre on the French Revolution. I was just wondering if anyone had the book/knew the quote in English?
„Der Geist der Revolution, der sich mit den Truppen des Kaisers ausgebreitet hatte, sollte deren Niederlage überleben”
Many thanks! |

Hilary Davies (asker): 17:13 Jun 8, 2005: I'm afraid I don't know anything about its authenticity... it was given as such, but may have been translated (from anything!) by the author of the text, or found goodness-knows-where! ;-)

| The spirit of the Revolution...
说明：
Having scoured the net in the hope of finding a translation of the original French, despite my feeling that - as it is presumably a less well-known quote of the French gentleman - you as a competent translator should feel free a) to offer up a translation yourself, from the original French if possible, or b) consider translations from others - I can almost feel the avalanche at the back of my neck - such as myself along the lines of:
"The spirit of the Revolution, whose span encompassed the advances of the Imperial Guard, was (yet) to outlast its troops' demise/was (yet) to outlive the death-blow to its ranks."
Otherwise, you might wish to wait in the hope that someone has a translation of the book, which is admittedly far easier to open but, depending on the glossary, may not yield up the translation so willingly.
Cheers anyhow!
