Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the People of England in the Nineteenth Century, 1832-1898, Vol. 2 It is not necessary here to go into the question whether or not the death penalty ought or ought not to be abolished altogether. It is so abolished in some countries of Europe and in some States Of the American Republic; and the argument is still going on as to the effect Of abolition on the increase or the decrease Of crime. It is perfectly certain that while the death penalty was enacted for all manner Of minor Offences the Offences did not decrease in number. How far the teaching of this evidence may be practically pushed, and whether the death penalty has in any cases the eect of diminishing the general average Of crime, is a question which to this day occupies the serious attention Of philan thropists and law reformers everywhere.

Book A People s History of Classics

Download or read book A People s History of Classics written by Edith Hall and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-02-26 with total page 586 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A People’s History of Classics explores the influence of the classical past on the lives of working-class people, whose voices have been almost completely excluded from previous histories of classical scholarship and pedagogy, in Britain and Ireland from the late 17th to the early 20th century. This volume challenges the prevailing scholarly and public assumption that the intimate link between the exclusive intellectual culture of British elites and the study of the ancient Greeks and Romans and their languages meant that working-class culture was a ‘Classics-Free Zone’. Making use of diverse sources of information, both published and unpublished, in archives, museums and libraries across the United Kingdom and Ireland, Hall and Stead examine the working-class experience of classical culture from the Bill of Rights in 1689 to the outbreak of World War II. They analyse a huge volume of data, from individuals, groups, regions and activities, in a huge range of sources including memoirs, autobiographies, Trade Union collections, poetry, factory archives, artefacts and documents in regional museums. This allows a deeper understanding not only of the many examples of interaction with the Classics, but also what these cultural interactions signified to the working poor: from the promise of social advancement, to propaganda exploited by the elites, to covert and overt class war. A People’s History of Classics offers a fascinating and insightful exploration of the many and varied engagements with Greece and Rome among the working classes in Britain and Ireland, and is a must-read not only for classicists, but also for students of British and Irish social, intellectual and political history in this period. Further, it brings new historical depth and perspectives to public debates around the future of classical education, and should be read by anyone with an interest in educational policy in Britain today.

Download or read book The Early Days of the Nineteenth Century in England Vol 1 of 2 written by William Connor Sydney and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early Days of the Nineteenth Century in England, Vol. 1 of 2: 1800 1820 Viewed from a social and domestic standpoint, the early days of the nineteenth century of the Christian era constitute a period of the national history which cannot be surveyed without interest. Separated as that period is from the present by the space of nearly a hundred years, its manners and customs are nevertheless those of an age widely dissimilar from that in which we are living. Recollections of the French Revolution, and of the excesses by which that event had been accompanied, were still fresh in the public mind. Nor had the passions and the prejudices, which the Revolution had evoked throughout the country, subsided to any material extent. The proclamation by the French Government of free and equal rights to all men had resulted only in making Englishmen cling as for their very life to the cause of monarchy and of social order. Liberty they loved as ardently as ever, but equality they suspected, and fraternity they abhorred. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-01-17 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Modern History of the English People, Vol. 2 Even if that were true for the moment, it necessarily ceased to be true before very long, since Members Of Parlia ment inevitably put their own points Of view before their constituents, and the latter, in approving or disapproving them, began to share in the same divergences. The third party in the House of Commons-the Irish Party - was at this time ineffective too. In the autumn of 1898 there had been an attempt, headed by Mr John Dillon, to close the breach caused seven years earlier by the disastrous accompaniments Of the fall of Parnell the attempt was renewed early in 1899. But it had failed the party remained in two unequal sections, and, as a whole, was morose and powerless. Lord Rosebery's coolness towards Home Rule 1 seemed to have its sequel this year in a statement from Sir Henry Fowler that the Liberal alliance with the Irish was at an end.2 It was true the formula employed said that the Irish party felt itself stronger in independence Of English parties but here was another source of cleavage for Liberal Opinion. There were many Liberals who could not but bitterly resent the suggestion that certain of their colleagues looked on Home Rule as a policy to be taken up or set down at convenience.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from England in the Nineteenth Century England when I was born had made very little material progress since the age of Queen Elizabeth. It prided itself, indeed, on its macadamized roads, its canal-boats, and its fast stage-coaches, and steamboats were beginning to be used on Scotch and English rivers but in 1822 the steam boats in Great Britain numbered only a hundred and twenty three, and these dared not venture on the rough waters of the ocean. Large cities were beginning to be lighted with gas. The discovery of its illuminating powers was very recent, and the smell was too offensive to allow of its introduction into' private houses. Boston, one of the earliest American cities to introduce it into its streets, did not adopt it till 1828.
