It is widely recognised that the French Revolution had an enormous impact on English literature and that almost all contemporary poets, novelists and playwrights wrote works directly influenced by French principles and by the remarkable events in France. This essay looks in particular at recent studies of those writers of imaginative literature who were excited and attracted by the French Revolution, those who were frightened and appalled by developments in France, and those who initially welcomed the French Revolution but later became its critics.
