Description
Access a rare piece of English history with this facsimile edition of Charles Pigott's 'A Political Dictionary Explaining the True Meaning of Words'. Originally published in 1795, this work has long been a staple for researchers studying late eighteenth-century radical culture, yet it remained hidden in specialized libraries for years. This Routledge reprint brings Pigott's sharp satire back to a wider audience. Charles Pigott was one of England's most prolific satirists during the decade of revolutionary unrest following the French Revolution. His writing, including various pamphlets and plays, captured the intense political climate of the era. Pigott completed this specific dictionary while in prison, creating a work that is frequently cited in academic analyses of the period. This edition provides a direct link to the revolutionary unrest and the biting political commentary that defined the Georgian and Regency eras in Great Britain.
