Autor James T. Boulton

This book focuses on the literature produced at the time of the controversy over Wilkes and the Middlesex elections and by the debate in England over the French Revolution. Writings by Junius, Johnson, Burke, Paine, Mackintosh, Wollstonecraft and Arthur Young among others are examined in order to identify and estimate the effectiveness of the persuasive techniques used by these writers to communicate ideas to their respective audiences. Godwin is also given a new assessment. A view of the extent and urgency over the French Revolution is provided by the chronological survey of replies to Burke’s Reflections given in an appendix.

Recenzii

‘As a work in its own right and as an example of the successful application of literary methods to the understanding of social and political controversy, (the book) has the rare quality of becoming standard on first publication.’ - History and Theory, IV, III, 382, 1965
‘Like many other students of literature, I was introduced to the prose of the 1790s by James Boulton’s Language of Politics in the Age of Wilkes and Burke, a book from which I have been learning for a decade or more.’ - Marilyn Butler
