At first glance, Workers Revolt from The Great Cat Massacre and Other Episodes in French History
by Robert Darnton seems to be about a senseless killing of cats. However, we quickly learn that it is about
much more than that. In this essay, examine how class conflict plays a role in the chapter Workers
Revolt. Also address, how are the individuals in this story experiencing conflict?
This paper must be at least 600 words and have a thesis statement that provides a decisive argument that
answers the question above.
You may only use the following approved sources in your paper (please note that any use of
external internet sources is prohibited):
* Workers Revolt in The Great Cat Massacre and Other Episodes in French Cultural History by
Robert Darnton
