While the French Revolution drew immense attention to French
radicals and their ideas, London also played host to a radical
intellectual culture. Drawing on both original material and a range
of interdisciplinary insights, Radical Conduct transforms our
understanding of the literary radicalism of London at the time of
the French Revolution. It offers new accounts of people's
understanding of and relationship to politics, their sense of the
boundaries of privacy, their practices of sociability, friendship,
gossip and discussion, the relations between radical men and women,
and their location in a wider world of sound and movement in the
period. It reveals a series of tensions between many radicals'
deliberative practices and aspirations and the conventions and
practices in which their behaviour remained embedded. Exploring
these relationships and pressures reveals the fractured world of
London society and politics, dramatically illuminating both the
changing fortunes of radical men and women, and the intriguing
uncertainties that drove some of the government's repressive
policies.
