Administrative / biographical history: The content of the papers is mainly political, and consists largely of the correspondence of Mundella, a prominent Liberal M.P. of the later 19th century who attained Cabinet rank.

Anthony John Mundella (1825-1897) was born in of an Italian father and an English mother. After education at a National School he entered the hosiery trade, ultimately becoming a partner in the firm of Hine and Mundella of Nottingham. He became active in the political life of Nottingham, and after giving a series of public lectures in Sheffield was invited to contest the seat in the General Election of 1868.

Mundella was Liberal M.P. for Sheffield from 1868 to 1885, and for the Brightside division of the Borough from November 1885 to his death in 1897. He served in successive under : as Vice-President of the Committee of Council on Education from April 1880 until June 1885; as President of the Board of Trade, with a seat in the Cabinet, from January until July 1886; and from August 1892 until his resignation in May 1894.

2 NOTES ON THE MUNDELLA PAPERS AND THEIR ARRANGEMENT

On Mundella's death his papers passed to his unmarried daughter, Maria Theresa, who intended to write a biography of her father based on the papers, supplemented by his own letters to others, given or 'loaned' to her, principally by the Leader and Wilson families. Together with her father's letters to the Leaders were a number of letters from other correspondents (see sections 85-95). Maria Theresa transcribed nearly all of her father's letters to Robert Leader and his sons (the Mundella-Leader correspondence) and several of those which Mundella wrote to Henry Joseph Wilson but she had not begun the proposed biography by the time of her own death in 1922. The papers, as supplemented by the gifts and 'loans' and Maria Theresa's transcripts, then passed to her niece, Lady Charnwood. Lord and Lady Charnwood presented the papers to Sheffield University Library in the 1930s, retaining certain unspecified items as being of family interest.

The content of the papers is mainly political so that an indication of subject has only been given where the correspondence relates mainly to one particular topic or is predominantly personal. It should be noted that the papers do not include any of the business archives of Hine and Mundella. Letters to Mrs. Mundella, which are mainly social, have been included with Mundella's own correspondence.

Arrangement is chronological, the main correspondents being given individual references within years. The criterion for inclusion of main correspondents is a reference in the Dictionary of National Biography or Who was Who, while all M.Ps have been added. See M.Stenton and S.Lees (eds) Who Was Who of British Members of Parliament, Vol., 1832- 1885 and Vol.II, 1886-1918 (Hassocks, 1978). Certain correspondents prominent in Sheffield politics, e.g. members of the Leader and Pye-Smith families, have also been included.
