This article analyzes the connection between U.S. and British intellectuals, friendship, courage and treason. Treason has become somehow forgivable under a wider set of circumstances. Among some intellectuals the climate of thinking about treason and traitors has changed dramatically since the end of World War II, particularly since the end of the 1960s. There is no denying that the fascination of treason represents an object of intellectual inquiry and contemplation. This article will also explore the depiction of the issue of traitors and treason in the novels of E. M. Forster.
