Language and Revolution in Burke, Wollstonecraft, Paine, and Godwin
Author: Jane Hodson
Publisher: Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.
ISBN: 9780754654032
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
Jane Hodson's book explores the relationship between political persuasion, literary style, and linguistic theory in four key texts on the French Revolution by Edmund Burke, Mary Wollstonecraft, Thomas Paine, and William Godwin. Situating these texts in the context of more than 50 contemporaneous books on language, as well as pamphlets, novels, and letters, Hodson challenges the notion that the Revolution debate was a straightforward conflict between radical and conservative linguistic practices.

Nor should the investigation be any less interesting because the disputants were Edmund Burke and Thomas Paine: both these men have also been the object of renewed attention and study in recent years. Critical work on the biography and bibliography of Paine is being done by Professor Aldridge and Col. Richard Gimbel respectively;2 while Burke is being well looked after, not only by the able team of experts who, under the leadership of Professor Copeland, are engaged in producing the critical edition of his Correspondence, but also by such individual scholars as D. C. Bryant, C. B. Cone, T. H. D. Mahoney, 3 P. J. Stanlis, C. Parkin, F. Canavan, and A. Cobban. But though Burke and Paine are being studied separately, little work appears to have been done on the relationship between them, apart from an 4 essay by Professor Copeland published more than twelve years ago.
