Book The Diaries of Anthony Ashley Cooper  the Seventh Earl of Shaftesbury

Download or read book The Diaries of Anthony Ashley Cooper the Seventh Earl of Shaftesbury written by David Brown and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2023-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lord Ashley (later the 7th Earl of Shaftesbury), the 'Poor Man's Earl', is widely remembered as a leading aristocratic philanthropist whose concern for suffering and the oppressed victims of Victorian 'progress' saw him champion a range of social, industrial, educational, and health reforms. A deeply religious individual, his evangelicalism and sense of philanthropy as 'duty' make these extraordinarily rich and candid diaries a vital resource for understanding the motivations of a prominent philanthropist and Victorian social reformer. The Diaries of Anthony Ashley-Cooper, the Seventh Earl of Shaftesbury contain detailed accounts of his labours, religious and philosophical reflections, self analysis, and descriptions and criticisms of contemporaries, and offer thereby a fascinating insight into Victorian politics and social change. The full run of the diaries span the period 1825-85. This first volume, covering 1825-45, shows the emergence of Ashley as a passionate evangelical reformer and determined advocate for a range of domestic and international issues and causes. Ashley is seen maturing as a private and public figure, courting and marrying Lady Emily (Minny) Cowper and starting a family while searching for a role and purpose, reading, touring (Europe in 1833-4, and Britain in 1839), and studying, while also taking the first steps in his parliamentary career. Ministerial office did not last long but Ashley soon became a key figure in Tory political circles, working closely with figures such as Peel and Wellington, and establishing his own position on questions of social and industrial reform.

Book The Diaries of Anthony Hewitson  Provincial Journalist  Volume 1

Download or read book The Diaries of Anthony Hewitson Provincial Journalist Volume 1 written by Andrew Hobbs and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2022-09-26 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anthony Hewitson (1836-1912) was a typical Victorian journalist, working in one of the largest sectors of the periodical press, provincial newspapers. His diaries, written between 1862 and 1912, lift the veil of anonymity hiding the people, processes and networks involved in the creation of Victorian newspapers. They also tell us about Victorian fatherhood, family life, and the culture of a Victorian town. Diaries of nineteenth-century provincial journalists are extremely rare. Anthony Hewitson went from printer’s apprentice to newspaper reporter and eventually editor of his own paper. Every night he jotted down the day’s doings, his thoughts and feelings. The diaries are a lively account of the reporter’s daily round, covering meetings and court cases, hunting for gossip or attending public executions and variety shows, in and around Preston, Lancashire. Andrew Hobbs’s introduction and footnotes provide background and analysis of these valuable documents. This full scholarly edition offers a wealth of new information about reporting, freelancing, sub-editing, newspaper ownership and publishing, and illuminates aspects of Victorian periodicals and culture extending far beyond provincial newspapers. The Diaries of Anthony Hewitson, Provincial Journalist are an indispensable research tool for local and regional historians, as well as social and political historians with an interest in Victorian studies and the media. They are also illuminating for anyone interested in nineteenth-century social and cultural history.

Excerpt: ... imaginable in our years, which increased as we grew older, and never to expire but in both our deaths. But my being so very young was assisted with the troubles I had already undergone in my own affairs, having now for several years been inured to the complaints of miseries from near relations and oppressions from men in power, being forced to learn the world faster than my book, and in that I was no ill proficient: yet I had for my diversion both hounds and hawks of my own. I chose my uncle Tooker, my surviving trustee, for my guardian, he being most versed in my affairs, my nearest relation, and had the reputation of a worthy man, as indeed he proved. He was a very honest, industrious man, an hospitable, prudent person, much valued and esteemed, dead and alive, by all that knew him."' Having had for about a year before going to the University a third tutor, of whom no more is known than that he was a Master of Arts, of Oriel College, Oxford,2 Sir Anthony Ashley Cooper was sent to Oxford in 1637, at the age of sixteen.3 He was entered as a gentleman-commoner at Exeter College, --the college chiefly resorted to from the western counties of England, which was then flourishing under the mastership of Dr. Prideaux, afterwards Bishop of Worcester. Shaftesbury says in his Fragment of Autobiography, that he was "under the immediate tuition of Dr. Prideaux," and in the short sketch of his early life, written in 1640, he calls Dr. Prideaux his tutor, and mentions that Mr. 1 Fragment of Autobiography. Autobiographical Sketch prefixed to Diary. 'His name had been entered, according to Anthony Wood, in Lent Term, 1636. (Ath. Oxon. ed. Bliss, iv. 7.)
