Maximilien Robespierre, a central figure in the French Revolution, rose to prominence as a champion of the radical Jacobin cause and architect of the Reign of Terror. Despite his initial idealism and commitment to egalitarian principles, Robespierre's descent into authoritarianism and political purges ultimately led to his downfall. His legacy remains controversial, symbolizing both the aspirations and pitfalls of revolutionary fervor.
