    Trials and Tribulations: Readings and Misreadings of the Revolutionary Body in French Women Novelists, 1792-1799. The Revolution! An unutterable word. Who can claim to understand clearly and precisely that set of events, alternatively glorious and deplorable, some of them the fruit of genius and daring, or again, of the most respectable integrity, and others born of the most perverse iniquity. Jeanbon Saint-André, Committee of Public Safety One would be hard pressed to find a more confusing period than that of the French Revolution, a time when the body politic tried to integrate and embody two equally powerful but ostensibly oppositional ideologies of the eighteenth century: sensibility and rationalism. The dramatic and tragic disjunction between the two, the one calling on passion, the other dispassion, resulted in a schizophrenic production of contradictory signs, symbols, discourse and actions during the revolutionary period, coming into sharp focus during the Terror, 1793-1794. For the Revolutionaries, it was not a question of one mode opposing the other, but rather they conceived the two modes along a continuum as one led to, and justified, the other. The philosophical, medical, and literary work on materialism and sensationism earlier in the century and in the years leading up to 1789 set the foundations for this connection. Following J. J. Rousseau, the revolutionary’s aim was to embody reason, virtue and sensibility. The violent acts resulting from the sensibility/rationalism dyad, however, showed up the contradictions inherent in connecting the two. The internal conflict within revolutionary discourse, which proclaimed on the one hand love and compassion for one’s fellow man, and cold hard impartial justice on the other, was subject to heated discussion amongst the revolutionaries whose members tried to negotiate the disjunction; for some, such as St.

    Island Studies Journal, Vol. 1, No. 1, 2006, pp. 163-180 BOOK REVIEWS SECTION Albury, Paul (2004) The Paradise Island Story, 2nd edition, revised by Anne and Jim Lawlor, Oxford, Macmillan Caribbean, 136pp. (illus), $19.90 (hardcover). ISBN: 0333992571. The Story of Paradise Island is an innocent book. It wants to be a straightforward anecdotal narrative about the apotheosis of “Hog Island,” which forms a harbour for the Bahamian capital of Nassau, into “Paradise Island,” a wave-lapped Garden of Eden for heat-seeking tourists who like their creature comforts dosed with novelty. At one level, this slender book is just that. There is a sort of antiquarian frontispiece, full of pirates, privateers, and adventurers, before the arc of the narrative reaches the tourism era. There, after a few false starts and thwarted dreams, entrepreneurship and free enterprise triumph in the person of South African hotelier Sol Kerzner, “a man of single-minded vision” (a popular descriptor in the world of business, which, when it takes notice of the past at all, remains wedded to a “great men” version of it). At last count, Kerzner and his associates had invested something in the order of $1 billion in tourist accommodations, attractions, and infrastructure on the 850-acre island, turning it into one of the premiere tourist destinations in the Caribbean. What we have in this book, writes J. Barrie Farrington in a florid foreword, is not a critical examination of anything, really; rather it “is a journey of magical proportions through time and a series of financial adventures and escapades” (p.
