Most controversial were the details of the romantic liaisons of Godwin's wife, Mary Wollstonecraft, with both American Gilbert Imlay and Godwin himself. Wollstonecraft's life and writings became central to a continuing discussion about love's place in human society. Literary radicals argued that the cultivation of intense friendship could lead to the renovation of social and political institutions, whereas others maintained that these freethinkers were indulging their own desires with a disregard for stability and higher authority. Through correspondence and novels, Andrew Cayton finds an ideal lens to view authors, characters, and readers all debating love's power to alter men and women in the world around them. Cayton argues for Wollstonecraft's and Godwin's enduring influence on fiction published in Great Britain and the United States and explores Mary Godwin Shelley's endeavors to sustain her mother's faith in romantic love as an engine of social change"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aPublished for the Omohundro Institute of Early American History and Culture, Williamsburg, Virginia 606 $aEnglish fiction$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aLove in literature 606 $aAmerican fiction$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aLiterature and society$zEngland$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aLiterature and society$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aPolitics and literature$zEngland$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aPolitics and literature$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aRadicalism in literature 615 0$aEnglish fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aLove in literature. 615 0$aAmerican fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aLiterature and society$xHistory 615 0$aLiterature and society$xHistory 615 0$aPolitics and literature$xHistory 615 0$aPolitics and literature$xHistory 615 0$aRadicalism in literature. 676 $a820.9/3543 686 $aHIS036020$aSOC028000$2bisacsh 700 $aCayton$b Andrew R.
