About the Robespierre-Marat mix-up: I noticed the light imagery here too. The Convention is on a high mountain and sublime and all that, but at the same time its hidden halls are so dark that you can't tell the well-groomed Robespierre from the odd-looking Marat. Its sublimity has darkness within it. This Light Is Symbolic, etc.
