Unable to grasp how such horrors could have come about, many concluded that it was the result of a devilish conspiracy hatched by Freemasons inspired by the ideas of the Enlightenment with the aim of overthrowing the entire social order, along with the legal and religious principles it stood on. Others traced it back to the Reformation or the Knights Templar and ascribed even more sinister aims to it. Faced by this apparently occult threat, they resorted to repression on an unprecedented scale, expanding police and spy networks in the process. This compelling history, occasionally chilling and often hilarious, tells how the modern state evolved through the expansion of its organs of control, and holds urgent lessons for today. 546 $a In Polish; translated from the English. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 648 7 $a 1789-1900 $2 fast 650 0 $a Political persecution $z Europe $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Revolutions $z Europe $x History $y 19th century. 650 7 $a Influence (Literary, artistic, etc.) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00972484 650 7 $a Political persecution. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01069448 650 7 $a Politics and government $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919741 650 7 $a Revolutions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01096737 651 0 $a Europe $x Politics and government $y 1789-1900. 651 0 $a Europe $x History $y 1789-1900. 651 0 $a France $x Influence. $y Revolution, 1789-1799 $x Influence. 651 7 $a Europe. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01245064 651 7 $a France. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204289 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 710 2 $a Wydawnictwo Literackie, $e publisher. 700 1 $a Ronikier, MichaÅ, $e translator. $5 IaU 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317031504.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=053319B69F4311EBBB7E29A634ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
