Augustin Thierry

Augustin Thierry (or Jacques Nicolas Augustin Thierry; 10 May 1795 – 22 May 1856) was a French historian.Although originally a follower of Henri de Saint-Simon, he later developed his own approach to history.

A committed liberal, his approach to history often introduced a romantic interpretation, although he did engage in research of primary sources.

He nevertheless was recognised as a significant historian of the evolution of communal governance.
