"Government by its very nature counteracts the improvement of original mind"--William GodwinWilliam Godwin was the first major anarchist thinker in the Anglophone world, and his thought rocked the establishment at the beginning of the nineteenth century. Famously married to Mary Wollstonecraft, father to Mary Shelley, and inspiration to Lord Byron, he lived a life and created a body of work that lie at the heart of British radicalism and romanticism.In this biography, Richard Gough Thomas reads Godwin afresh, drawing on newly discovered letters and journals. He situates Godwin's early life in the counterculture of eighteenth-century religious dissent, before moving on to exploring the ideas of the French Revolution. As Godwin's groundbreaking works propelled him from Whig party hack to celebrity philosopher, his love affair with Mary Wollstonecraft saw him ostracized in both liberal and conservative circles.Godwin's anarchism always remained at the center of his work, Thomas shows, inspiring libertarians, both left- and right-wing. This biography places Godwin alongside the other members of his famous family as a major political, ethical, and educational writer and shows why a reappraisal of his ideas is pertinent today.

Wat is socialiteit? Hoe tekent het ons als mens? Met wie of wat kunnen we sociale banden aanknopen? Die vragen dringen zich op in een wereld vol dingen waarmee we communiceren, een wereld waar dieren rechten krijgen en rivieren rechtspersoonlijkheid. Wat betekent 'sociaal'? In dit boek wordt deze simpele vraag onderzocht op een directe wijze, door aan te knopen bij gewone ervaringen, vooral van schrijvers en dichters. Die beschikken namelijk over een sensitiviteit die gewone stervelingen vaak missen. Zij zijn onze gids in de fascinerende wereld waar de bronnen van de socialiteit opborrelen.
