WHAT DOES SEPTEMBER MASSACRE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

September Massacre

September Massacres

The September Massacres were a wave of killings in Paris and other cities in late summer 1792, during the French Revolution. There was an overwhelming fear that foreign armies would attack Paris and the prisoners would revolt and massacre the people. Radicals called for preemptive action, especially journalist Jean Paul Marat who called on draftees to kill the prisoners before they marched off. The action was undertaken by mobs of national Guardsmen and some fédéré; it was tolerated by the city government. By 6 September, half the prison population of Paris had been executed: some 1200 to 1400 prisoners. Of these 233 were nonjuring Catholic priests who refused to support the government. However, the great majority of those killed were common criminals. The massacres were repeated in many other French cities. No one was prosecuted for the killings, but the political repercussions first injured the Girondists and later the Jacobins. The September Massacres were an iconic event that to this day divides the supporters and opponents of the Revolution.
