Papers for the People
Author: Joan Allen

Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
"Between 1837 and 1859, Chartists published over 120 newspapers and periodicals. Most Chartist newspapers were short-lived, some were more enduring, but all were testimony to the fact that an energetic, propagandist press was of crucial importance to the first great working-class movement in the world." "Papers for the People provides stimulating new perspectives on the Chartist press and offers a rigorous analysis of the role of print and print culture in the Chartist movement from its early beginnings to its more diverse manifestation in the late 1850s. Located within the broader context of developments in nineteenth-century British journalism, the essays afford a comprehensive chronological and geographical appraisal of Chartist press activity. While existing work has concentrated only on England and Scotland this volume also includes studies of the press in Wales, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. Some of the chapters are expressly revisionist; others are pioneering and innovative."--BOOK JACKET.

The Chartist Movement
Author: Mark Hovell
Publisher: Manchester University Press
ISBN: 9780719000881
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 376
Book Description
"Chartism was a Victorian era working class movement for political reform in Britain between 1838 and 1848. It takes its name from the People's Charter of 1838. The term "Chartism" is the umbrella name for numerous loosely coordinated local groups, often named "Working Men's Association," articulating grievances in many cities from 1837. Its peak activity came in 1839, 1842 and 1848. It began among skilled artisans in small shops, such as shoemakers, printers, and tailors. The movement was more aggressive in areas with many distressed handloom workers, such as in Lancashire and the Midlands. It began as a petition movement which tried to mobilize "moral force", but soon attracted men who advocated strikes, General strikes and physical violence, such as Feargus O'Connor and known as "physical force" chartists."--Wikipedia

The Literature of Struggle
Author: Ian Haywood
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317243064
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
First published in 1995. Chartism inspired a prodigious literary output, based on its own newspapers and journals. However, while some Chartist political writings have been reprinted, the aesthetic texts of the movement have largely been neglected. This selection of short stories and extracts from longer fiction aims to remedy this situation and covers a diversity of authors, genres and themes. Ian Haywood has written a cogent and wide-ranging review of the Chartist movement and its literature as an introduction to this collection of little-known and revealing stories. The diction is divided into the following areas: the condition of England, Ireland, revolution, women and Chartism itself. This title will be of interest to students of history.

Social Class and Marxism
Author: Neville Kirk
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 135189966X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 254
Book Description
In recent years historians and other social scientists have widely questioned the continued relevance of social class - as historical relationship, as sociological category, as philosophical concept, and in terms of its enduring political significance. The success of the British Conservative Party since 1979, combined with the weaknesses and failures of the Labour movement, have led historians and social scientists to reconsider the general nature of connections between the 'social' and the 'political' and the specific relations between the working class and socialist and Labour politics. This collection of essays is a multi-disciplinary critique of the new revisionism, which demonstrates the continued vitality and promise of non-reductionist and non-determinist modes of class analysis.

Excerpt from A History of the Chartist Movement This teeming mass of ideas, inspired with nascent energy, is the most striking characteristic of the Chartist movement. To the working men who listened to William Lovett and Fear gus o'connor, ideas mattered more than to any succeeding generation. Lovett's autobiography is a curious piece of evidence, showing its writer's obsession with ideas. More than one-half of that substantial book consists of manifestos and addresses drafted by its author. To Lovett the idea was as important as the deed, He and his generation really did believe in the prevailing power of truth.
