  • Toward Liberalism: Politics, Poverty, and the Emotions in the 1790S Peter Denney Griffith University
    Toward Liberalism: Politics, Poverty, and the Emotions in the 1790s Peter Denney Griffith University I n the volatile atmosphere of the mid-1840s, the leading exponent of Victorian liber- alism, John Stuart Mill, published an essay in the Edinburgh Review in which he rejected the assumption that political economy encompassed a “hard-hearted, unfeeling” approach Ito the question of poverty.1 Entitled “The Claims of Labour,” a major purpose of the essay was to advocate self-help as the key to improving the condition of the laboring classes. According to Mill, the promotion of self-help was an urgent matter, for there had been a revival of the belief that the situation of the poor could be ameliorated either by charity or by the redistribution of property. It was as if people had forgotten the population theory of Thomas Robert Malthus, who, beginning in the late 1790s, argued that such schemes exacerbated the problem of poverty by discouraging the laboring classes from developing qualities like restraint and industriousness that were crucial not just to their improvement but to their survival. Radical and conservative critics alike condemned Malthus both for the bleakness of his theory and for the cold, calcu- lating attitude it seemed to endorse. While understanding such criticism, Mill dismissed these detractors as the “sentimental enemies of political economy.”2 At the same time, he insisted that political economy was compatible with sympathy, if not with sentimentality. If interpreted cor- rectly, it generated a view of the poor that mixed empirical observations with positive emotions, producing a sense of optimism regarding the future of the laboring classes.

Vol. I edited by Bernard Bailyn Library of America, 1214 pp, $35.00, July 1993, ISBN 0 940450 42 9 All rebellions resemble one another, but every revolution is revolutionary in its own way. The French wrote the classic modern script for revolution – utopian, transformative and bloody – but even they recognised that the prologue to their drama had been playing in America since 1776. When viewed from 1789 or 1793, however, the American Revolution looked distinctly unrevolutionary. No Louis lost his head after Lexington; no American Bastille was stormed; no Robespierre emerged among the staid Ciceros and Cincinnati of the founding generation. What, then, was so revolutionary about the American Revolution: the colonists’ successful rebellion against the British Crown, or the building of a nation under a novel Constitution which inspired the French to flattering imitation? Gordon Wood has argued powerfully, in The Radicalism of the American Revolution (1991), that the real revolution lay in the transformation of ‘a monarchical society into a democratic one unlike any that had ever existed’, though even this may underestimate its constitutional legacy.

After ill-fated affairs with the painter Henry Fuseli and American businessman Gilbert Imlay, Wollstonecraft mar- ried the philosopher William Godwin, one of the founders of the anarchist movement. Wollstonecraft died at the age of thirty-eight, eleven days after giving birth to her second daughter, Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin, future author of the Gothic novel, Frankenstein. M After Wollstonecraft’s death, her widower published a memoir (1798 ) of her life, often cited as the first biography, revealing her unorthodox lifestyle. It was a brave and honest account which tarnished her reputation for almost a century as she was reviled as a prostitute, described by Horace Walpole, ‘ a hyena in petticoats ’. Scurrilous poems abounded, including a piece called The Un-sex’d Females ; this was poetry functioning as an eighteenth-century Twitter, trollers mocking Wollstonecraft as a ‘ poor maniac ’ a ‘ voluptuous ’ victim of ‘ licentious love.’ With the emergence of the feminist movement at the turn of the twentieth century however, Wollstonecraft’s advocacy of women’s equal- ity and critiques of conventional femininity became increasingly important.

Reviewed by Tara Helfman INTRODUCTION In his first cabinet meeting of 2014, President Obama announced a strategy to bypass the Republican-controlled House of Representatives and advance his social and economic agenda through the discretionary powers of the executive: We are not just going to be waiting for legislation in order to make sure that we’re providing Americans the kind of help that they need.

    fflast.inddlast.indd xxiviv 111/7/20101/7/2010 11:25:00:25:00 AAMM Praise for Romanticism and Revolution ‘Romanticism and Revolution offers a representative anthology of immediate British reactions to the epoch-making events taking place in late eighteenth-century France. Reflections on the Revolution meant debate over the Rights of Man – and Woman – as well as on the nature of Government, patriotism, social and political justice. This careful selection of passages from the most important texts allows modern readers to see the intense contemporary debate unfold, to consider the arguments and to trace the dialogues between different writers. Key players in the great Revolutionary Debate come alive for a modern readership through these memorable pas- sages of highly distinctive prose and are set in context by the other extracts as well as through judicious editorial introductions and notes. Anyone keen to develop a real understanding of the political climate of the early 1790s will find this volume indispensable.’ Fiona Stafford, Somerville College, University of Oxford ‘An indispensable volume – in every way a worthy successor to Marilyn Butler’s Burke, Paine, Godwin and the Revolution Controversy. In Romanticism and Revolution, Mee and Fallon provide intelligent, representative, wide-ranging selections from Price, Burke, Wollstonecraft, Paine, and Godwin for a new generation of students and scholars. Due not least to the generosity of their selections, Mee and Fallon revitalize our understanding of – to name but a few contexts – Price’s politics of Rational Dissent, Burke’s affective rhetoric of the sentiments, both Wollstonecraft’s attack on Burkean theatricality and her arguments for female education, Paine’s levelling of political language, and Godwin’s ideals of political utility and disinterestedness.

  • Understanding the London Corresponding Society: a Balancing Act Between Adversaries Thomas Paine and Edmund Burke by Jocelyn B
    Understanding the London Corresponding Society: A Balancing Act between Adversaries Thomas Paine and Edmund Burke by Jocelyn B. Hunt A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in History Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2013 © Jocelyn B. Hunt 2013 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This thesis examines the intellectual foundation of the London Corresponding Society’s (LCS) efforts to reform Britain's Parliamentary democracy in the 1790s. The LCS was a working population group fighting for universal male suffrage and annual parliaments in a decade that was wrought with internal social and governmental tension. Many Britons, especially the aristocracy and those in the government, feared the spread of ideas of republicanism and equality from revolutionary France and responded accordingly by oppressing the freedom of speech and association. At first glance, the LCS appears contradictory: it supported the hierarchical status quo but fought for the voice and representation of the people; and it believed that the foundation for rights was natural but also argued its demands for equal rights were drawn from Britain’s ancient unwritten constitution. This thesis contextualizes these ideas using a contemporary debate, the Burke-Paine controversy, as Edmund Burke was the epitome of eighteenth century conservative constitutionalism in Reflections on the Revolution in France while Thomas Paine’s Rights of Man represented a Lockean interpretation of natural rights and equality.
