Joe Farrell examines the stories of six great but forgotten people and asks why they have been so neglected. 4: William Godwin , social philosopher, was one of the most radical thinkers England has produced. A supporter of the American War of Independence and the French Revolution, opponent of organised government and national education and a firm believer in the perfectibility of the human race, he has been described as the founding father of British anarchism.
