Couverture du J A Downie: Political Biography of Henry Fielding (ePUB)

Existing accounts of Fielding’s political ideas are insufficiently aware of the structure of politics in the first half of the eighteenth century, and of the ways in which Whig political ideology developed following the Revolution of 1688. This political biography explains and illustrates what ‘being a Whig’ meant to Fielding.
