William Godwin, der Sohn und Enkel strenger kalvinistischer Prediger, löste sich nach intensivem Lesen von seinem Glauben und seiner kirchlichen Laufbahn. Er entwickelte sich zu einem bedeutenden Denker der Aufklärung, der den Anarchismus und eine von Religion unabhängige Moral vertrat, was anfangs für großes Aufsehen sorgte. Godwin verstand es meisterhaft, seine radikalen Ideen sowohl durch philosophische Abhandlungen als auch durch bahnbrechende fiktive Werke zu vermitteln, insbesondere durch eine wegweisende Abenteuer-Detektivgeschichte, die ein breites Publikum erreichte. Sein Intellekt und seine kühnen Ansichten machten ihn zu einem der einflussreichsten Autoren seiner Zeit und hinterließen ein bleibendes Erbe, das bis zu seiner Tochter Mary Shelley reichte.
