520 1  "Are sex scandals simply trivial distractions from serious
       issues or can they help democratize politics? In 1820, 
       George IV's "royal gambols" with his mistresses endangered
       the Old Oak of the constitution. When he tried to divorce 
       Queen Caroline for adultery, the resulting scandal enabled
       activists to overcome state censorship and revitalize 
       reform. Looking at six major British scandals between 1763
       and 1820, this book demonstrates that scandals brought 
       people into politics because they evoked familiar stories 
       of sex and betrayal. In vibrant prose woven with character
       sketches and illustrations, Anna Clark explains that 
       activists used these stories to illustrate constitutional 
       issues concerning the Crown, Parliament, and public 
       opinion."--Jacket.
