William Godwin manuscript material : 383 items, 1778-1836

Title: William Godwin manuscript material : 383 items 1778-1836

William Godwin, English philosopher and novelist. Godwin achieved celebrity at the end of the eighteenth century with the philosophical treatise Enquiry Concerning Political Justice, and the novel Things as They Are; or, The Adventures of Caleb Williams. His first wife was Mary Wollstonecraft, pioneer for women's rights, and their only child together grew up to become Mary Shelley, author of Frankenstein. Godwin's philosophies greatly influenced the political mind of his son-in-law, the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley. The William Godwin manuscript material in the Pforzheimer Collection consists of writings, correspondence, promissory notes, and various other documents. The writings include: complete holograph manuscript drafts of his works Fleetwood, Coludesley, and Lives of the Necromancers; manuscript drafts of essays from his Enquirer; and proof revisions written in volumes of his Political Justice and St. Leon. The bulk of the correspondence is dated 1795-1834 and mostly discusses Godwin's research, business matters and financial arrangements. Correspondents include: Mary Shelley, novelist (his daughter); Percy Bysshe Shelley, poet (his son-in-law); Aaron Burr, vice president of the United States; Samuel Taylor Coleridge, poet; and over one hundred others. The promissory notes date from between 1804-1818, and are mostly to neighborhood merchants. Other documents include library call slips, memos of agreement for business deals, and Godwin's last will and testament.

The Papers consist of letters, two manuscripts and ephemera; approximately 500 letters are from Dorothy Jordan to William IV (Duke of Clarence), covering the years 1794 to 1812. The letters deal with domestic matters: the health of their children, renovations to their principle home, Bushy House, and the lives of their family and friends. The letters also deal with Dora's working life as she performs in London and on tours throughout England and Ireland, her financial affairs, the Peninsular Wars, and the ill-health of George III and the coming Regency. There is also a small number of letters and two manuscripts by other family members: Sophia (Baroness De L'Isle and Dudley), Lord Frederick FitzClarence, Elizabeth (Landgravine of Hesse-Homburg), George FitzClarence (Earl of Munster), and William IV; also, business related letters from William Adam, John Philpot Curran, John Philip Kemble, Henry Siddons, and George Grey (Earl of Warrington). The ephemera consists of two folders containing misc. autograph notes, an envelope, printed material and misc. cover sheets. The Hair box is a hide-covered box originally used by Lord Frederick FitzClarence to store the letters of his parents. Please see the Finding Aid (DJ 6) for an explanation of this box and its use. The box is in very fragile condition and curator approval must be obtained before paging.
