Sans-culottes – Wikipedia

The sans-culottes (French: [sɑ̃kylɔt], literally ‘without breeches’) were the common people of the lower classes in late 18th-century France, a great many of whom became radical and militant partisans of the French Revolution in response to their poor quality of life under the Ancien Régime.[1] The word sans-culotte, which is opposed to “aristocrat”, seems to have been used for the first time on 28 February 1791 by Jean-Bernard Gauthier de Murnan in a derogatory sense, speaking about a “sans-culottes army”.[2] The word came into vogue during the demonstration of 20 June 1792.[3]
