description: "Georges Lefebvre was a French historian, best known for his work on the French Revolution and peasant life. He is considered one of the pioneers of \"history from below\". He coined the phrase the \"death certificate of the old order\" to describe the Great Fear of 1789. Among his most significant works was the 1924 book Les Paysans du Nord pendant la Révolution française, which was the result of 20 years of research into the role of the peasantry during the revolutionary period."
