Editing Jacobins (section)

=== Transfer to Paris ===
By [[the March on Versailles]] in October 1789, the club, still entirely composed of deputies, reverted to being a provincial caucus for [[National Constituent Assembly (France)|National Constituent Assembly]] deputies from Brittany. The club was re-founded in November 1789 as the ''Société de la Révolution'', inspired in part by a letter sent from the [[Revolution Society]] of London to the Assembly congratulating the French on regaining their liberty.<ref>{{cite ODNB|url=https://www.oxforddnb.com/view/10.1093/ref:odnb/9780198614128.001.0001/odnb-9780198614128-e-96833|first=Rémy|last=Duthille|title=London Revolution Society|date=4 October 2007|pages=239–40|doi=10.1093/ref:odnb/96833|isbn=978-0-19-861412-8}}</ref><ref name=Alpaugh2014>{{Cite journal|first=Micah|last=Alpaugh|title=The British Origins of the French Jacobins: Radical Sociability and the Development of Political Club Networks|journal=[[European History Quarterly]]|year=2014|volume=44|page=594|doi=10.1177/0265691414546456|s2cid=144331749|url=https://www.researchgate.net/publication/284402102|publisher=SAGE Publications}}</ref><ref name="Kennedy1979">{{Cite journal|first=Michael L.|last=Kennedy|title=The Foundation of the Jacobin Clubs and the Development of the Jacobin Club Network, 1789-1791|journal=The Journal of Modern History|date=December 1979|volume=51|number=4|pages=701–733|url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/1877163|publisher=The University of Chicago Press|doi=10.1086/241987|jstor=1877163|s2cid=144831898|url-access=subscription}}</ref>

To accommodate growing membership, the group rented for its meetings the refectory of the [[Dominican Order|Dominican]] [[Couvent des Jacobins de la rue Saint-Honoré|monastery of the “Jacobins” in the Rue Saint-Honoré]], adjacent to the seat of the Assembly.<ref name=Alpaugh2014/><ref name="Kennedy1979"/> They changed their name to ''Société des amis de la Constitution'' in late January, though by this time, their opponents had already concisely dubbed them "Jacobins", a nickname originally given to French Dominicans because their first house in Paris was in the [[Rue Saint-Jacques, Paris|Rue Saint-Jacques]].<ref name="Phillips 1911, pp. 117–119."/><ref name="Kennedy1979"/>
