When the first issue of The Liberal was published on 10 October 1822, the periodical was largely dismissed by the British press as a political project, orchestrated by well-known and controversial figures (L. Hunt, P.B. Shelley, Lord Byron, W. Hazlitt, and Mary Shelley), who were all members of the so-called Pisan circle", an Anglo-Italian community of liberal writers who aspired to cultural and social reform. Even though The Liberal was addressed to an English public, it was entirely conceived in Italy, a country which had become a symbolic as well as a geographical space, and played a crucial role in the definition of the journal's aims and themes. This collection of essays examines the short and difficult life of the periodical, reassessing its cultural politics, the relationship to Italy, the controversial British reception, and its relevance to Romantic (and indeed contemporary) debates on Liberalism"--
