🇬🇧 What Liberalism Requires: The Very Victorian Marriage of J. S. Mill and Harriet Hardy Taylor

"There was much unhappiness in this threesome. Doubt, anger, loneliness, and jealousy plagued each of them at one point or another. They pushed the limits of marriage as an institution in a moment when the difficulty of obtaining a divorce and coverture invited it."

Tusan, M.E. (2026) ‘What Liberalism Requires: The Very Victorian Marriage of J. S. Mill and Harriet Hardy Taylor’, Journal of British Studies, 65, p. e10. doi: https://doi.org/10.1017/jbr.2025.10186.
