PBOGBESS: -- A STTMMAET VIEW OF TEMPEBANCE OPEBATIONS TO THE PBESENT TIME. GJ It DEGREES'Otigl' it seems expedient to close the connected (3V History of the Movement with the preceding chapter, yet a general view of the operations of the various existing organizations to the present time, may, perhaps, be considered necessary to the completion of our scheme. The cause is still progressing; and, notwithstanding the various opposing influences by which it has been surrounded, it never occupied a better position than it does at this day. The temperance movement has changed the whole aspect of society, in reference to the drinking customs. It cannot now be said of any class of society, as was said- by Lord Macaulay of the upper classes, in the reign of Queen Anne, "Such excess was in that age regarded, even by grave men, as the most venial of all peccadilloes, and was so far from being a mark of ill breeding, that it was almost essential to the character of a fine gentleman;"* and, indeed, so accustomed were the aristocracy of that time to intoxicating drinks, that Macaulay further remarks, that "we should no more think of saying that he sometimes took too much wine, than that he wore a long wig and a sword." These times have passed away, and, as a general rule, society finds it necessary, to apologize for the use of intoxicating liquors, and to profess opinions in favour of abstinence. How much the temperance movement has had to do in effecting this change we cannot now stay to inquire; doubtless it has had a considerable influence in promoting this reformation, although some other agencies may have been at work at the same time: and among other causes which have tended to change public opinion in reference to intoxicating drinks, we...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drink, 'the curse of Britain', was sweeping the land, or so it seemed to many Englishmen in the early decades of the nineteenth century. They held it responsible for crime, poverty and many other ills of the rapidly industrializing towns. A 'moderation' temperance reform organized in 1829 largely under middle class auspices soon gave way to a radical commitment to total abstinence in a great variety of worker self-help groups. When these too failed to change the drinking habits of most Englishmen the temperance movement sought new alliances. In the 1870s and 1880s Gospel Temperance married temperance to revivalist religion. It received the support of both established and non-conformist churches, and millions 'took the pledge'. But many did not; and as religious enthusiasm faded the anti-drink forces shifted their attention to the political arena. After successfully pressuring the Liberal Party to adopt limited prohibition, they mounted a great but unsuccessful campaign in the 1895 election. With this defeat the anti-drink crusade disintegrated, leaving the dedicated teetotallers socially isolated in the safe haven of their drink-free subculture.

Download or read book Temperance Societies in Late Victorian and Edwardian England written by David M. Fahey and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020-09-23 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By studying the temperance societies that flourished in late Victorian and Edwardian England, this book opens a window through which we can view middle-class and working-class society. Such societies provided the backbone for temperance both as a social movement and a political lobby. Most temperance societies became aligned with the Liberal Party in support of prohibition by Local Veto. A few allowed members to drink, but most were committed to total abstinence. There were organizations of middle-class men, of workingmen and their wives, of women, and of children and youth. The largest adult society was affiliated with the Church of England, but most societies were identified with Nonconformist denominations.
