The public controversy lasted from the initial, positive reaction to French events in 1789 to the outlawing of the radical societies in 1799. This Cambridge Companion highlights the energy, variety and inventiveness of the literature written in response to events in France and the political reaction at home. It contains thirteen specially commissioned essays by an international team of historians and literary scholars, a chronology of events and publications, and an extensive guide to further reading. Six essays concentrate on the principal writers of the Revolution controversy: Burke, Paine, Godwin and Wollstonecraft. Others deal with popular radical culture, counter-revolutionary culture, the distinctive contribution of women writers, novels of opinion, drama, and poetry. This volume will serve as a comprehensive yet accessible reference work for students, advanced researchers and scholars. 410 0$aCambridge companions to literature. 606 $aEnglish literature$y18th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aLiterature and society$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y18th century 607 $aFrance$xHistory$yRevolution, 1789-1799$xInfluence 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory$y1789-1820 607 $aFrance$xHistory$yRevolution, 1789-1799$xForeign public opinion, British 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aLiterature and society$xHistory 676 $a820.9/3584404 702 $aClemit$b Pamela 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996211772503316 996 $aThe Cambridge companion to British literature of the French Revolution in the 1790s$92493673 997 $aUNISA 999 $aThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
