Summary "Jumalat janoavat: Romaani" by Anatole France is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The book is set during the tumultuous period of the French Revolution and follows the life of Évariste Gamelin, a painter and revolutionary, as he navigates the complex socio-political landscape of revolutionary Paris. The narrative explores themes of art, politics, and the fervor of revolutionary ideals, providing a profound commentary on the era. The opening of the story introduces Évariste Gamelin, who heads to a church that has become a gathering place for revolutionary activity since the Revolution began. Inside the church, he engages in discussions about political responsibilities and the dire situation facing the Republic, including military defeats and the scarcity of food. As he interacts with other revolutionaries and expresses his intense commitment to the cause, we see his passionate nature unfold, revealing a character driven by both an urgent sense of duty and artistic ambition. The vivid imagery of revolutionary Paris and Gamelin's aspirations set a dramatic stage for the conflicts and challenges he will encounter as the story progresses.
