I think this might have been the last question I answered on this sub - I don't come here often - but here's a few;

  • Robert Tombs' The Paris Commune - Relatively short and a good introduction coming from a vaguely centre-right sort of approach

  • Lissgaray - History of the Paris Commune of 1871- Online for free, you can guess his political allegiance from the domain that it is hosted on. This is the granddaddy though, taken as gospel for a long time it was first published 1876 and has framed our understanding of the events, especially on the left

  • Karl Marx - The Civil War in France (and the essay by Lenin that is often packaged with it) - is interesting in understanding how the Left remember the events of 1871

    I'd say as well that as this was before the split in the international it is worth reading what some of the anarchists like Bakunin and Kropotkin wrote, its odd because the communist and anarchist are not necessarily disagreeing about everything. It is debatable to what degree ideology drove Parisians but they had plenty of ideas in them melting pot from the mutualism of Proudhon, to the sense of waiting for Blanqui to return to the city and lead them to the nascent communist and anarchist movements.

I asked a similar question of couple of occasions. Below are the books recommended. However, I have not yet read any, unfortunately. I hope to see more and better answers here. Also, does anyone know of a work that deals with how Paris Commune was represented, especially within Marxist thought in 20th century?

Paris - Capital of Modernity

Robert Tombs' The Paris Commune

Again, those were recommender to me but I haven't read them yet and can't say more about them.
