This is your rhetoric translated. These wretches, these executioners, the guillotine are your speeches come to life. You have built your doctrines out of human heads... Why should an event that transforms the whole of humanity not advance through blood? 1794: the French Revolution reaches its climax. After a series of bloody purges the life-loving, volatile Danton is tormented by his part in the killing. His political rival, the driven, ascetic Robespierre, decides Danton's fate. A titanic struggle begins. Once friends who wanted to change the world, now one stands for compromise the other for ideological purity as the guillotine awaits. A revolutionary himself, George Büchner was 21 when he wrote the play in 1835, while hiding from the police. With its hair-raising on-rush of scenes and vivid dramatisation of complex, visionary characters, Danton's Death has a claim to be the greatest political tragedy ever written. In his newly-revised translation, Howard Brenton captures Büchner's exhilarating energy as Danton struggles to avoid his inexorable fall.

n muß? Habt ihr vergessen, daß diese Hure der Könige ihren Aussatz nur in dem Wasser der Rhone abwaschen kann? Habt ihr vergessen, daß dieser revolutionäre Strom die Flotten Pitts im Mittelmeere auf den Leichen der Aristokraten muß stranden machen? Eure Barmherzigkeit mordet die Revolution. Der Atemzug eines Aristokraten ist das Röcheln der Freiheit. Nur ein Feigling stirbt für die Republik, ein Jakobiner tötet für sie. Wißt: finden wir in euch nicht mehr die Spannkraft der Männer des 10. August, des September und des 31. Mai, so bleibt uns, wie dem Patrioten Gaillard, nur der Dolch des Kato. (Beifall und verwirrtes Geschrei.)Ein Jakobiner. Wir werden den Becher des Sokrates mit euch trinken!Legendre (schwingt sich auf die Tribüne). Wir haben nicht nötig, unsere Blicke auf Lyon zu werfen. Die Leute, die seidne Kleider tragen, die in Kutschen fahren, die in den Logen im Theater sitzen und nach dem Diktionär der Akademie sprechen, tragen seit einigen Tagen die Köpfe fest auf den Schultern. Sie sind witz

Danton: Gentle Giant of Terror In this new biography, David Lawday, author of the acclaimed Napoleon's Master, a life of Talleyrand, turns his focus to the life of Georges-Jacques Danton, tragic hero incarnate. A beefy six-foot bull of a man, with a rude farmyard face to match, Danton was destined to bring a violent end to an absolute monarchy that had ruled for a thousand years. But it was not his alarming physique that placed him at the head of the Revolution. His weapon of revolt was his voice - a perpetual roll of thunder that spurred men to action without his quite knowing where he intended to drive them. To hear Danton was to hear the heartbeat of revolution. Together with the puritanical Robespierre - his rival to death and in most every way his opposite - Danton brought about something rare in history: a change in the human social order. The reckless ride from monarchy to republic was a mass social revolution that upended the most populous country in Europe - an upheaval so uniquely radical in spirit that formed the root - if not quite of that liberty and equality its makers dreamed of - at least of the liberal, democratic society in which a good part of the world is fairly content to live today. What manner of man makes such stupendous things happen? With prose that is immediate and engaging, Lawday examines the personalities and the associations that inspired and fuelled the Revolution. The power of Danton's oratory, and his charismatic appeal, led him to the centre of power at the height of a period of turbulent change. But he was to become a victim of Revolution himself, facing the guillotine - defiant to the end - at the age of thirty-four.
