- Guillotine abstract "The guillotine (/ˈɡɪlətiːn/; French: [ɡijɔtin]) is a device designed for carrying out executions by beheading. It consists of a tall upright frame in which a weighted and angled blade is raised to the top and suspended. The condemned person is secured at the bottom of the frame, with his or her neck held directly below the blade. The blade is then released, to fall swiftly and sever the head from the body. The device is best known for its use in France, in particular during the French Revolution, when it "became a part of popular culture" and it became celebrated as the people's avenger by supporters of the Revolution and vilified as the pre-eminent symbol of the Reign of Terror by opponents." The guillotine continued to be used long after the Revolution and remained France's standard method of judicial execution until the abolition of capital punishment with the backing of President François Mitterrand in 1981. The last person guillotined in France was Hamida Djandoubi, on 10 September 1977.The guillotine has also been employed in other countries. In Germany, it saw prolific use during the Third Reich[citation needed] and was used once by West Germany in 1949[citation needed] and by East Germany as late as 1966[citation needed].".
