"To treat of the Church, the School, and the Family, describe the modern milieu and note the facilities and obstacles which a society like our own encounters in this milieu," such was the programme of the last section of The Origins of Contemporary France. The present volume is a continuation of the first part of this programme; after the commune and the department, after local societies, the author was to study moral and intellectual bodies in France as organised by Napoleon. This study completed, this last step taken, he was about to reach the summit. He was about to view France as a whole, to comprehend it no longer through a detail of its organs, in a state of formation, but its actual existence. Sadly, of this last volume only the part relating to the Church and to public instruction was written, for the intervention of death suddenly arrested the pen. Yet, for those who have followed him thus far it is already clear that the great defect of the French community is the dissociation of individuals, isolated, dwindling, and prostrate at the feet of the all-powerful State, rendered incapable by remote historical causes, and yet more so by modern legislation, of "spontaneously grouping around a common interest". If the conclusion is not written, whoever knows the author's thought may divine it. Thus, the work, such as it is, is essentially finished; it already contains his ideas in full; the intelligent eye has only to follow them and to note their consequences and combination.

Volume number two of Taine's Origins of Contemporary France deals with the first phase of the French Revolution, from its immediate prelude, the winter of 1788, until the rise of the Jacobins. Taine details the dire economic and administrative conditions that led to the convocation of the States-General, the psychological transformation of the populace as it became aware of its squalid condition, and the intervention of ruffians and vagabonds, who sowed discord with rhetoric based on the 'new ideas'. From there he traces the slow descent into anarchy, aided by feeble and ineffective measures of repression while the popular mob grew into a political force. He analyses various factors influencing the formation, composition, and operation the Constituent Assembly; the destruction of the old order; and the shambolic, chaotic, and misguided attempts to build a new one as unrestrained passions, supported by ideology and expressed through violence, gained sovereignty. Outrages, illegality, popular outbreaks, and military insubordination set the stage for the Jacobin conquest.
