Professor Peter Silver‘s classes were a model for the way that history should be taught and studied; they provided a framework for me to learn about and appreciate primary source research. Professor Silver helped me to focus my research interests as I prepared to write a thesis; I had been interested in studying crowd violence, and he suggested the Gordon riots to me as a potential thesis topic because they were fascinating and historically neglected. As I began to research them, I appreciated the fascination and mystery that they held, as well as the opportunity to delve deeper into a topic that has not been overly-researched. I am grateful to Professor Silver for his suggestions and encouragement. I also want to thank Professor Masschaele for organizing the history honors program and providing a structured environment in which to research and write a thesis. He facilitated the process of applying to the honors program while I was studying abroad during my junior year, and encouraged me and my fellow thesis writers throughout the research and writing process. Looking backwards, I am grateful for all the deadlines he set for us and the structure provided through the thesis seminar. If not for these, I imagine that the research and writing process would have been significantly more painful and chaotic. I owe a great deal of gratitude to my advisor, Professor Alastair Bellany. He provided a great breadth of knowledge which helped to guide the development of my research; encouragement and suggestions when the direction of my thesis began to change halfway through the year; and a great deal of patience and support throughout the entire process. I am ii indebted to him for his careful readings of my draft material and helpful and insightful suggestions along the way. I feel really fortunate to have had the opportunity to write my thesis under his guidance. I would also like to give thanks to Professor Jennifer Jones, who was my second reader. She was extremely generous and accommodating, and helped me to see aspects of my thesis from a different perspective. I am grateful to her for her perceptive questions and comments, and her encouragement. I am grateful for my family for always supporting me and encouraging me to be the best person I could be. Last, but certainly not least, I want to thank Keith Dobbs. He supported me through every step of this process, cooked me many a dinner, and generally kept me sane. I could not have done this without him. iii Introduction The day was Wednesday, June 7th, 1780 and London was on fire.1 In the neighborhood of Holborn, near the grounds of Thomas Langdale‘s distillery, men, women and children knelt on the ground and lowered their mouths to pools of burning alcohol that had collected in the streets and ran down the gutters, licking up whatever they could salvage. Around them, houses burned and Langdale‘s distillery, which had covered a two block stretch of land and had contained an estimated 120,000 gallons of gin, lay in ruins from the shots that had been fired at it by an unruly crowd, igniting the great vats of liquor stored inside and throwing into the air ‗a pinnicle of flame resembling a volcano‘2. In the East End of London, members of the mob raided pubs in Golden Lane and Whitechapel and destroyed them while drinking whatever spirits they could get their hands on. Elsewhere, in Broad Street, the Honourable Artillery Company and the London Military Association fired on the mob, killing several. Chaos reigned across the city; both the King‘s Bench prison and the Fleet prison were set on fire and its inhabitants set loose on the city, and throughout the afternoon, groups of rioters attempted to make two assaults on the Bank of England. All throughout the city, houses, shops and offices that were occupied by Catholic merchants, businessmen and shopkeepers were attacked and either destroyed completely or damaged. Meanwhile, Hyde Park had the appearance of an armed camp. Due to a shortage of barrack accommodation for the troops who had marched into the capital in the preceding week, now numbering in the several thousands, many were forced to make a temporary camp in the 1 This narrative of the riots is reconstructed from multiple sources: George Rudé, "The Gordon Riots: A Study of the Rioters and Their Victims" in Paris and London in the Eighteenth Century: Studies in Popular Protest, (New York: The Viking Press, 1970), 268-276; John Stevenson, Popular Disturbances in England, 1700-1831 (New York: Longman Publishing, 1992), 96-102; Ian Gilmour, Riot, Risings and Revolution: Governance and Violence in Eighteenth-Century England (London: Hutchinson, 1992), 342-356. 2 Nathaniel Wraxall, Historical Memoirs of My Own Time (Philadelphia: Carey, Lea, and Blanchard, 1837), 135. 1 largest and most famous of London‘s royal parks. All throughout the city, these regiments worked to quell the riots, resulting in a death toll of at least two hundred and eighty five people by the riots‘ conclusion. This day, known as ―Black Wednesday‖, marked the culmination of the Gordon Riots, one of the largest and deadliest civil disturbances in British history. Seven days previously, on May 31st, Lord George Gordon stood before the House of Lords during a session of Parliament and announced to the House that the following Friday, June 2nd, he would present for their consideration a petition of the Protestant Association of London, pushing for the repeal of ―late Act in Favour of Popery in England‖, the Catholic Relief Act of 1778. He also informed the House that the whole Association proposed to assemble in St. George‘s Fields on the morning of June 2nd and to accompany their petition to the House in ―the most humble, decent and respectable manner‖. Indeed, Gordon had been posting advertisements in London newspapers for the previous several days, calling all members of the Protestant Association, of which he was the president, to gather at St. George‘s Fields to support their petition, which opposed the Act that had granted Catholics living in England some minor relief from discrimination. On June 2nd, a crowd of 60,000 supporters of the Protestant Association showed up at St. George‘s Fields to oppose the small measure of Catholic relief. While awaiting the arrival of Gordon, the crowd, wearing the blue cockades on their heads which were the symbol of the Protestant Association, paraded with flags, chanted hymns and psalms, and arranged themselves into the prearranged four divisions for the march on Parliament. They then listened to a harangue from Lord George Gordon and paraded three or four times around the Field before marching out into the streets, singing hymns and heralded by blue banners. Using separate bridges, the sections of the Association moved to Palace Yard, outside the doors to the Houses of Parliament. The section that crossed Westminster Bridge was 2 preceded by a man carrying on his shoulder the great parchment roll containing upwards of 40,000 signatures. One of the sections, which passed over London Bridge and had the longest route, a three mile journey through the city, interrogated passers-by who were not wearing blue cockades and was apparently swollen by people recruited en route. Between two thirty and three o'clock in the afternoon, the crowd reassembled itself in Palace Yard. Some crowded into Westminster Hall, and seeing Dunning, the seconder of the Bill for Catholic Relief, addressing the Court of Kings' Bench, they interrupted his speech. They then blocked up the avenues to the Lords, from which they were rebuffed by the door-keepers. By now the crowd was getting boisterously unruly: Members of Parliament attending the House of Lords or Commons were forced to join in cries of 'No Popery‘; known supporters of the Protestant Association had their coaches drawn to the doors of the House, while opponents were pelted with mud, insulted and mistreated, usually to chaotic cries of 'No Popery' by the crowd. George Savile, the proposer of the Catholic Relief Bill, had his coach demolished; Lord Mansfield, the Chief Justice, had his coach windows smashed; and Lord Ashburnham was dragged into the House over the heads of the crowd, while other Members of Parliament had their wigs ripped off their heads, were covered with mud, and had their property stolen or damaged in various ways. Inside the House of Lords, Lord George Gordon informed members that he had a petition with 120,000 signatures and moved for it to be brought up. During the debate that ensued on the House floor, Gordon frequently left the chamber and addressed the crowd waiting outside from the gallery stairs, giving them news of how events were progressing and offering up the names of those who opposed the petition.

They had progressed to St Peter’s Field on the southern edge of the town from the city’s working-class districts and the surrounding textile weaving regions, including Rochdale, Oldham and Stockport. Monday was the traditional day off for handloom weavers and other artisan workers, and the marchers wore their best clothes and symbols to create a festive atmosphere.

  • Anatomy of a Crisis
    Page 7 Chapter 2 Munich: Anatomy of A Crisis eptember 28, 1938, “Black Wednesday,” dawned on a frightened Europe. Since the spring Adolf Hitler had spoken often about the Sudetenland, the western part of Czechoslovakia. Many of the 3 Smillion German-speaking people who lived there had complained that they were being badly mistreated by the Czechs and Slovaks. Cooperating closely with Sudeten Nazis, Hitler at first simply demanded that the Czechs give the German-speakers within their borders self-government. Then, he upped the ante. If the Czechs did not hand the Sudetenland to him by October 1, 1938, he would order his well-armed and trained soldiers to attack Czechoslovakia, destroy its army, and seize the Sudetenland. The Strategic Location of the Sudetenland Germany’s demand quickly reverberated throughout the European continent. Many countries, tied down by various commitments and alliances, pondered whether—and how—to respond to Hitler’s latest threat. France had signed a treaty to defend the Czechs and Britain had a treaty with France; the USSR had promised to defend Czechoslovakia against a German attack. Britain, in particular, found itself in an awkward position. To back the French and their Czech allies would almost guarantee the outbreak of an unpredictable and potentially ruinous continental war; yet to refrain from confronting Hitler over the Sudetenland would mean victory for the Germans. In an effort to avert the frightening possibilities, a group of European leaders converged at Munich Background to the Crisis The clash between Germany and Czechoslovakia over the Sudetenland had its origins in the Versailles Treaty of 1919.

  • Radical Dissent in Edmund Burke's Reflections on The
    De Bruyn / Anti-Semitism, Millenarianism, and Radical Dissent 577 A NTI-SEMITISM, MILLENARIANISM, AND RADICAL DISSENT IN EDMUND BURKE’S REFLECTIONS ON THE REVOLUTION IN FRANCE Frans De Bruyn The status of Edmund Burke’s Reflections on the Revolution in France as a classic text in political theory can be ascribed to the thoroughness with which it articulates a philosophical argument for political conservatism and to its undeni- able rhetorical and literary power.1 From its first appearance late in 1790, readers have responded to the astonishing range of cultural, historical, intellectual, and literary reference in the Reflections (as, indeed, in Burke’s other writings on the French Revolution). John Thelwall makes the point tellingly, if disapprovingly, in reviewing one of Burke’s later antirevolutionary tracts: “The rage of Juvenil, and the playful levity of Horace, are not sufficient; and Billingsgate and the shambles are forced into alliance with the muses, the classics, and the sciences, to supply him with terms and metaphors sufficiently forcible to express the mighty hatred with which he labours.”2 Thelwall shrewdly identifies an important and some- times disconcerting feature of Burke’s rhetorical virtuosity: his ability to press into service the full compass of eighteenth-century cultural discourse, from the high, polite, and exalted to the low, popular, and scurrilous. There is much to admire in this eloquence, but its copiousness and impet- uosity sometimes find display in unattractive, indeed blameworthy, modes of ex- pression. An instance of this, infrequently remarked upon, is Burke’s intermittent deployment in the Reflections of a language of anti-Semitism.3 One critic who has drawn attention to this aspect of Burke’s text is Tom Paulin, who addresses the Frans De Bruyn is Professor of English at the University of Ottawa in Canada.

From his student days he had been an avid book collector. He formed relationships with antiquarian booksellers throughout the north of England. His interests were eclectic but focused on English literature of the 17th and 18th centuries. Several of my father’s books have survived in the present collection. During childhood I paid little attention to his books but in later years I too became a collector. During the war I was evacuated to the Lake District and my school in Keswick incorporated Greta Hall, where Coleridge lived with Robert Southey and his family. So from an early age the Lake Poets were a significant part of my life and a focus of my book collecting.

The entry into circulation of euro notes and coins means that European Monetary Union (EMU), a project devised by Europe’s political elite over more than a generation, has finally come down to the street. The psychological and economic consequences of the launch of Europe’s single currency will be far- reaching. It will mark the final break from national currencies, promising a cultural revolution built on stable prices, enduring fiscal discipline, and lower interest rates. The origins of the euro go back to the late 1960s, when the Europeans were searching for a response to the upheaval in the Bretton Woods system, in which the US dollar was the dominant currency.
