Desmoulins, (Lucie Simplice) Camille (Benoist) (1760–1794)

French revolutionary who summoned the mob to arms on 12 July 1789, so precipitating the revolt that culminated in the storming of the Bastille. A prominent left‐wing Jacobin, he was elected to the National Convention in 1792. His Histoire des Brissotins was largely responsible for the overthrow of the right‐wing Girondins, but shortly after he was sent to the guillotine as too moderate.
