The French Revolution catapulted Europe into a new period of
political upheaval, social change, and into the modern era. This
book provides a concise introduction to the impact of the French
Revolution on Britain and to the ways in which this impact has been
assessed by historians. The book is organised thematically. It
begins with a survey of the ideological debate sparked off by the
Revolution discussing, in particular, the work of people such as
Burke, Paine, Spence and Wollstonecraft. From here it presents an
exploration of the Revolution s impact on * Parliamentary polities
* The growth of radicalism and loyalism * The way in which French
ideas influenced Irish aspirations to generate rebellion The third
main section of the book focuses on the causes and course of
Britain s war with Revolutionary France, and on the effects of the
war on the home front, most notably the recurrent, serious food
shortages.
