What kind of memory did repeated use of Marianne's image create in France?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Shared republican national memory
Repeated public images help societies remember political values and connect them with a common identity. Marianne represented liberty, the republic and the French nation, so her appearance on coins, stamps, public buildings and other objects helped create a shared republican national memory. The image was not chiefly a reminder of a foreign dynasty, feudal taxes or an agrarian crisis.
