A controversial legal and political pamphlet by Camille Desmoulins, "R plique aux deux m moires des sieurs Leleu, insignes meuniers de Corbeil," offers a fascinating glimpse into the tumultuous years leading up to the French Revolution. Written in 1789, this work showcases Desmoulins's sharp wit and legal acumen as he addresses the arguments of the Leleu brothers, prominent millers from Corbeil. The presence of M. Necker suggests the significance and high stakes of the dispute. This pamphlet serves as a valuable primary source for understanding the social, economic, and political tensions brewing in France during this pivotal period.
