William Godwin (Wisbech, March 3, 1756 - London, April 7, 1836) was a British politician and writer, considered one of the most important forerunners of anarchist thought. He is also famous for the women with whom he was linked during his life: he married feminist writer Mary Wollstonecraft in 1797 and together they had a daughter, also named Mary, who has gone down in history as the author of the Gothic novel Frankenstein.
