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.
