David M. Craig is a lecturer in history at the University of Durham whose research interests focus on the political culture and intellectual history of Britain since 1750. His recent work on the intellectual aftermath of the French Revolution has resulted in Robert Southey and Romantic Apostasy, and he has also published on aspects of the history of republicanism, the monarchy and national character.

The thoroughgoing and complexly rendered analysis that Craig offers will be of interest to all Southeyans. [...] This is a significant work of scholarship, using material from right across Southey's vast corpus of reviews at the Edinburgh Annual Register, the Quarterly Review and in innumerable other sources that ought to change the way Romanticists see not just Southey, but the political map of the early nineteenth century.
