REVOLUTION. 3 documents emanating from the... - Lot 725 - Conan Belleville Hôtel d'Ainay
REVOLUTION. 3 documents emanating from the Committee of surveillance of sections of the Observatory (1) and of Bonconseil (2), signed by the various members. 1 prairial-8 messidor year 2 [20 May-26 June 1794]. 2 pp. in-4 and 1 p. in-8. 3 documents relating to the affair of Catherine Théot known as "mother of God" (1716-1794), mystic and visionary, self-proclaimed prophetess, who was used by Vadier to compromise Robespierre: orders to have suspects from her entourage arrested: Jean-Baptiste Mure "as a result of operations in the case of Catherine Teot known as Mother of God", "the named Louise citizen Masson aged 51 [] warned of being from the suite of the Mother of God", "the named Pierre Chevalier [] and the citizen Catherine Helaine Treffenschield woman Chevalier warned of being from the suite of the Mother of God". These last two documents are dated from the day Robespierre succeeded in preventing the "Mother of God" from being brought before the Revolutionary Court, a decision that was in complete contradiction with the decree of the Convention, which accentuated the split within the Convention.
