  • Radical

  • Monarchist

  • Federalist

Answer

Radical, the answer to this question, accurately sums up Southey's early political stance. During the latter half of the 18th century, he passionately aligned himself with progressive ideals and actively supported causes such as universal suffrage and parliamentary reform. However, as time went on, Southey's political views shifted towards conservatism, leading to a gradual departure from his initial radical leanings.
