This study concerns with John B. Fourier' s life, his teachers, his younger scholars and the $L^1$-convergence of Fourier series. First, we introduce the correlation between the French Revolution and Fourier who is significant in the history of mathematics. Second, we investigate Fourier' s teachers, students and a minor lineage of his younger scholars from 19th century to 20th century. Finally, we compare the theorem of Telyakovskii with the theorem of kolmogorov on $L^1$-convergence of Fourier series.
