	William Godwin (1756-1836): The Apostle of "Universal Benevolence."
		Godwin's reputation as a radical thinker and writer was to attract a number of people to his side, though there were others who shunned his acquaintance, and some were naturally, or became ultimately, his enemies.
		Godwin's system the 'omnipotence of reason' supersedes the use of law and government, merges the imperfection of the means in the grandeur of the end, and leaves but one class of ideas or motives, the highest and the least attainable possible.
		Godwin, it seems, ill-treated his children: "The worst feature of his character was his implacability towards his children, whom he hated, alleging that they were not his own."19 In 1814, the 17 year old Mary Wollstonecraft-Godwin accompanied the 26 year old Shelley to France; her half-sister, Jane Clairmont went along so to form a threesome.

		Born at Wisbech in Cambridgeshire, Godwin's family on both sides were middle-class people, and it was probably only as a joke that he, a stern political reformer and philosophical radical, attempted to trace his pedigree to a time before the Norman Conquest to the great earl, Godwine.
		Godwin himself could never have been a worker on the active stage of life, but he was none the less a power behind the workers, and for its political effect, Political Justice takes its place with Milton's Areopagitica, with Locke's Essay on Education and with Rousseau's Emile.
		Godwin did not believe that all coercion and violence was immoral per se, as Bakunin and Tolstoy did, but rather recognised the need for government in the short term and hoped that the time would come when it would be unnecessary.

	William Godwin (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy)
		Godwin was born on 3 March 1756 at Wisbeach, Cambridgeshire, the seventh of thirteen children of John Godwin (1723-1772) a dissenting minister, and his wife Anne (c1723-1809), the daughter of Richard Hull, a ship-owner engaged in the Baltic trade.
		Godwin begins by defending the importance of political inquiry and refuting claims that moral and political phenomena are a function of climate, national character or luxury.
		Indeed, Godwin's account of pleasure, in terms of the development of intellect and the exercise of its powers, means that the position looks as much like perfectionism as it does a form of hedonistic utilitarianism (what is valued is the ideal as much as the pleasures which are integral to it).

		Program assessment will involve tracking the performance and retention of students in general chemistry and the sciences and comparing their success with that of control groups.
		The primary focus of the research in Dr. Godwin's laboratory is to study the basic chemical and biological mechanisms by which toxic metal ions, such as lead, affect neurological signaling and development.
		Because Dr. Godwin’s research interests lie at the interface of inorganic chemistry and biology, the approach she takes to her studies on the role of metal ions in signal transduction is quantitative and molecular.

		Godwin apparently permitted the murder of another claimant to the throne, Alfred Ætheling, son of Queen Emma by her first husband, Æthelred the Unready, and brother of Edward (later Edward the Confessor).
		In 1051, when Edward ordered Godwin to punish the people of Dover for a fracas with Eustace II of Boulogne and his retinue, Godwin took the opportunity to challenge the king's strength by refusing.
		Ann Godwin, one of thousands of displaced workers in Orange County, California, copes with the setback by focusing on her spiritual life.

	Literary Encyclopedia: Godwin, William
		By the end of the eighteenth century, however, the radical milieu with which Godwin was associated was disintegrating under the pressure of repressive legislation and emerging cultural nationalism occasioned by the rise of Napoleon and military conflict between England and France.
		Godwin was born in 1756 into a family of dissenting ministers.
		While Robert Southey was not alone in thinking that Godwin had displayed a “want of feeling in stripping his dead wife naked,” the honesty of the text and its lack of regard for the prudishness of its readership generated an important early example of modern biography.

		Godwin has an almost Trollopian eye for the community that revolves around St. Cuthbert's, the parishioners with their quirks and foibles, the vestry with their expectations and demands.
		In childhood Godwin lived with her divorced mother, a writer and college literature teacher who was the model for some of Godwin's strong female characters.
		Godwin studied at Peace Junior College, the University of North Carolina (B.A., 1959), and the University of Iowa (M.A., 1968; Ph.D., 1971).

	How to post about Nazis and get away with it - the Godwin's Law FAQ
		Godwin's Law is a natural law of Usenet named after Mike Godwin (godwin@eff.org) concerning Usenet "discussions".
		Not only is it wrong to say that a thread is over when Godwin's Law is invoked anyway (Usenet threads virtually always outlive their usefulness), but long ago a corollary to the Law was proposed and accepted by Taki "Quirk" Kogama (quirk@swcp.com): Quirk's Exception: Intentional invocation of this so-called "Nazi Clause" is ineffectual.
		Godwin's Commentary Godwin actually wrote a short article for Wired Magazine on the Law back in 1994: http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/2.10/godwin.if_pr.html The article is actually more about the power and danger of memes (thought-viruses) than about Godwin's Law itself, but it's worthwhile reading for anybody who actually got this far into the FAQ.

		"Godwin met her at the moment when she was deeply depressed by the ingratitude of one utterly incapable of appreciating her excellence; who had stolen her heart, and availed himself of her excessive and thoughtless generosity, and lofty independence of character, to plunge her in difficulties and then desert her.

	Godwin Revisited Chapter 2
		Godwin asserted that human beings are able and morally obliged to govern their behavior on the basis of the dictates of their own reasoned judgment, which he sometimes called 'conscience'.
		Godwin recognizes the potential for tension between the duty to obey the dictates of private judgment and the normal attitude of respect for another's sphere of discretion.
		Godwin is concerned with the intention of an act, not just with its consequences; he distinguishes types of pleasure, regarding virtue as the highest pleasure;...and he regards the self-interested pursuit of pleasure as simply a form of vice.

		Mr Godwin told me why he did not choose me to read Paine's book, which I think is all very reasonable, for it would certainly have been improper for a young thinker to read a burlesque on the subject, and I believe would rather have tended to shock me than otherwise.
		Mr Constable's proposition is, that he will pay to the youth for his services a salary Of £15 per annum, and that if we add £30 to that, the whole will be sufficient for his subsistence, upon the same footing as the other young men whom Mr Constable is in the habit of receiving.

	Plastic: Bush Goes Godwin!
		Iran apparently has been developing "a series of bunkers and facilities bunkers and facilities to provide hidden command centres for its leaders and to protect its nuclear infrastructure." A lack of reliable intelligence about these facilities has been fuelling pressure to include tactical nukes in strike plans to guarantee that all sites are destroyed.
		Bush is convinced that Iran will not stop its plans, and would very likely use any developed weapons to attack Israel or US forces in the Middle East.
		The new estimate extends the timeline, judging that Iran will be unlikely to produce a sufficient quantity of highly enriched uranium, the key ingredient for an atomic weapon, before "early to mid-next decade," according to four sources familiar with that finding.

		He remarried in 1801 and in 1805 established a small, juvenile publishing business.
		Godwin’s works strongly influenced his younger contemporaries, particularly Shelley, whose elopement with Mary (1814) drew from Godwin an exhibition of sternness at variance with his earlier views.
