Gregory Claeys explores the reception of the French Revolution in Britain through the medium of its leading interpreters. Claeys argues that the major figures - Thomas Paine, Edmund Burke, Mary Wollstonecraft, William Godwin and John Thelwall - collectively laid the foundations for political debate for the following century, and longer.
Industry Reviews
'Claeys has an enviable gift for expounding lucidly what are often complicated and sophisticated arguments. Any student working on the political and social thought of England in the 1790s will find this a very helpful introduction.' - Tim Blanning, Faculty of History, University of Cambridge, UK
