Gregory Dart argues that by looking at the way in which Rousseau's writings were mediated by the speeches and actions of the French Jacobin statesman Maximilien Robespierre, we can gain a clearer and more concrete sense of the legacy he left to English writers. He shows how the writings of William Godwin, Mary Wollstonecraft, William Wordsworth and William Hazlitt rehearse and reflect upon the Jacobin tradition in the aftermath of the French revolutionary Terror. 410 0$aCambridge studies in Romanticism ;$v32. 517 3 $aRousseau, Robespierre & English Romanticism 606 $aEnglish literature$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aPolitics and literature$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aPolitics and literature$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y18th century 606 $aEnglish literature$y18th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish literature$xFrench influences 606 $aRomanticism$zGreat Britain 607 $aFrance$xHistory$yRevolution, 1789-1799$xForeign public opinion, British 607 $aFrance$xHistory$yRevolution, 1789-1799$xInfluence 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aPolitics and literature$xHistory 615 0$aPolitics and literature$xHistory 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xFrench influences. 615 0$aRomanticism 676 $a820.9/145 700 $aDart$b Gregory$01695394 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910821540303321 996 $aRousseau, Robespierre, and English Romanticism$94074613 997 $aUNINA
