  • As He Liked to Describe Himself, Jabez Spencer Balfour, MP for Tamworth
    A ‘SINCERE, thOROUgh AND HEARTY LIBERAL’? A ‘sincere, thorough and hearty Liberal’, as he liked to describe himself, Jabez Spencer Balfour, MP for Tamworth from 1880 to 1885 and for Burnley from 1889 until 1892, was, if not exactly an ornament, certainly an undoubted asset to the Liberal cause until commercial and personal disaster plunged him into notoriety. He had built before then a reputation as a shrewd and successful businessman, a pillar of Nonconformity, a devoted friend of the temperance movement, and a dedicated champion of Liberalism, first in municipal Croydon and then on the national platforms on to which, as a reliably crowd-pleasing orator, he was often invited to speak. David McKie tells his story. 38 Journal of Liberal History 52 Autumn 2006 A ‘SINCERE, thOROUgh AND HEARTY LIBERAL’?

Robinson College, Cambridge: Saturday 21 October 2006 A century ago the Liberal Party secured a landslide victory, enabling it to introduce significant social reforms. This one-day conference seeks to re-evaluate the impact of the 1906 landslide victory. It will focus on the key electoral issues, from human rights to economics, and assess why it all went wrong. Bringing together a range of leading academics and MPs, topics include ‘Religion, human rights and policies, 1906–2006’; the philosophy and economic strategies of the New Liberalism; Winston Churchill as Liberal leader and Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman; and ‘the strange death of Liberal England’.

  • Dead Or Alive - Some Questions About Objects and People
    N O RDI S K MU SEO LOGI 199 8 •2, S . 1 7-28 DEAD OR ALIVE - SOME QUESTIONS ABOUT OBJECTS AND PEOPLE Sally MacDonald This paper is about a few objects in two museums I know. One - my last place ofwork - was what might be called a social history or community history museum in Croydon just outside London. The other - where I have worked for the last six months - is a museum ofEgyptian archaeology in a university in central London. In most parts of Britain, archaeology and social history (in the museum context at any rate) are distinct disciplines with their own specialist groups, networks and methods. I am still trying to come to terms with very different types ofobjects, terminologies and ways ofthinking and to work out whether there are approaches I can bring from one environment to the othet: I find it challenging to juxtapose objects from the two museums - some ofthem separated by nearly 5 000 years - and to think about the questions and issues they raise for me now. WHAT JS A GOOD MUSEUM? colleagues commissioned qualitative mar­ ket research to try to ascertain what peo­ In Croydon I had the opportunity to set ple might want from a museum there. 2 We up a new museum service almost from asked non-visitors as well as visitors and scratch.1 It was a museum mainly for local one of the remarkable findings was that people funded by local government and it there was little difference in the way they opened in 1995.

  • Guide to Paddington Old Cemetery
    A Brief History and Background to the Site and Burials at Paddington Old Cemetery by Kevin Barret December 2018 Background The public cemetery as distinct from the churchyard, as a proper place for burial, originated in the Victorian period. Under common law, every parishioner and inhabitant of a parish had a right to be buried in his or her parish churchyard or burial ground. There were few exceptions to this right of Christian burial. An Act of 1823 put an end to the practice of burying suicides in some public highway with a stake driven through them and directed that they be buried in the churchyard, but between 9 p.m. and midnight, and without rites of the Church. Compulsory dissection of murderers' bodies was not abolished until 1832, and hanging in chains lingered on until 1834 By 1850 most London churchyards were so overcrowded that they posed a severe health risk to those people working or living nearby. Thousands of bodies were buried in shallow pits beneath the floorboards of chapels and schools. Congregations and pupils had to beathe the foul-smelling air which resulted. The comparatively small number of gravestones in a churchyard can belie the number of bodies buried. The churchyard of St Martin-in-the-Fields was only 200 feet (60 metres) square yet, in the early 1840's, was estimated to contain the remains of between sixty and seventy thousand persons. In the past burial used to be in shared plots during medieval times. Victorians in the 19th century decided to give importance to how we treated the dead.
