Description
Jean-Paul Marat (May 24, 1743 - July 13, 1793) was a physician, political theorist, journalist and politician during the French Revolution. He broadcast his views through public speaking, essay writing and newspaper journalism. His radical denunciations of counter-revolutionaries supported much of the violence that occurred during the wartime phases of the French Revolution and his constant persecution of enemies of the people, brought him the trust of the populace and made him their unofficial link to the radical Jacobin group that came to power. In 1793 he was murdered in his bathtub by Charlotte Corday, a Girondist sympathizer. Engraving by Louis Brion de la Tour, 1793-94 (cropped and cleaned).
