Seditious allegories

John Thelwall & Jacobin writing

by

"The multifaceted career of John Thelwall (1764-1834) - poet, novelist, playwright, journalist, politician, scientist - is the lens through which we are offered here a new look at the phenomenon of British Jacobinism, long distorted by the critical view of it as intellectually weak bequeathed to us by Coleridge and Wordsworth, once Jacobins themselves.

This book, the first on Thelwall in almost one hundred years, combines literary analysis and historical description to show how this innovative political activist remained true to his radicalism while adapting his methods in the face of the anti-Jacobin reaction that Paine's The Rights of Man helped set off."--BOOK JACKET.
