ST AUBERT: FROM LE MONT TOMBE TO LE MONT ST MICHEL.
The first evidence of building on Le Mont dates from the 8th century. Aubert, Bishop of nearby Avranches, claimed to have had visions of Archangel Michael, instructing him to build an oratory on Le Mont Tombe. The oratory was duly built and dedicated in 709CE, along with a well.
From the time of St Aubert's death in 720CE, pilgrims went to worship St Michael at "Le Mont Saint Michel".

I'm all about revolutions lately. Working on both a podcast and docuseries on The American Revolution which I've posted about quite a bit, but also working on another series by the same podcaster on the history of the French Revolution. Yeehaw for the revolutionary spirit.

📅 March 1, 1815
Napoleon Bonaparte lands at Golfe-Juan on the French Riviera after escaping exile on the island of Elba. With just 1,000 loyal soldiers, the fallen emperor begins his dramatic march north to Paris, gathering supporters along the way.

I am having some trouble finding the exact quote, but it was something like "You cannot be the king of two peoples", I believe written by Louis Philippe in his Duke days to his distant cousin King Charles X before the July 1830 revolution, suggesting that a King must not treat his own subjects (the liberals in that case) as his enemies. #USPolitics #FrenchHistory #StateOfTheUnion https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Address_of_the_221
🖤 For Black History Month, join us in celebrating the first Black classical music composer in France: Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges.
Inspired by the incredible true story of Bologne in 18th century France, Disney's Chevalier takes place during the lead up to the French Revolution. The film sheds light on the realities of France at this time and can ignite student interest in learning more about the French Revolution as well as this remarkable historical figure.
Our free Chevalier Discussion Guide also explores Bologne's legacy; Beginnings, Opportunity, and Excellence; and Race and Identity. For grades 11-12, adult/higher ed.
🔔 This is also a great film for Music in Our Schools Month in March!

I was recently attacked in an email.
Why? Because a year and a half ago, I recorded a podcast episode with Louis Sarkozy. We talked about Napoléon's readings. That’s it.

#OnThisDay, 5 Oct 1789, thousands of women instigate and lead the March on Versailles.
They - along with revolutionaries who join them - besiege the Palace to demand cheap bread. The march is considered to have an impact on a par with the fall of the Bastille in terms of the French Revolution.
