This paper considers two versions of the child that circulated in Romantic thought – (1) the dangerous, inherently perverse child, and (2) the innocent child who is susceptible to perversion – in light of Charles Bradbury's 1755 trial and the testimony of James Hearne, a young apprentice who accused Bradbury of sodomy. The author argues that these reductive versions of the child remain in circulation today, as evidenced by recent changes to Canada's age of consent legislation, and a critical reading of Hearne's case points to how children's behaviour always exceeds the narratives adults create to understand and explain it.
