  • REFORMATIVE SYMPATHY in NINETEENTH-CENTURY CRIME FICTION Erica Mccrystal
    Erica McCrystal 35 REFORMATIVE SYMPATHY IN NINETEENTH-CENTURY CRIME FICTION Erica McCrystal (St. John’s University, New York) Abstract Nineteenth-century British crime novels whose heroes were criminals redefined criminality, alerting readers to the moral failures of the criminal justice system and arguing for institutional reform. My research on this topic begins with William Godwin’s novel Caleb Williams (1794) as a social reform project that exposes hypocrisy and inconsistency of governing institutions. I then assess how contemporary social criticism of crime novels contrasts with the authors’ reformative intentions. Critics argued the ‘Newgate novels’, like those of Edward Bulwer-Lytton and William Harrison Ainsworth, glorified criminality and were therefore a danger to readers. However, Bulwer-Lytton’s Paul Clifford (1830) and William Harrison Ainsworth’s Jack Sheppard (1839) serve, like Caleb Williams, as social reform efforts to alert readers to the moral failings of the criminal justice and penal institutions. They do so, I argue, through the use of sympathy. By making the criminal the victim of a contradictory society, Godwin, Bulwer-Lytton, and Ainsworth draw upon the sympathies of imagined readers. I apply contemporary and modern notions of sympathy to the texts to demonstrate how the authors use sympathy to humanise the title characters in societies that have subjected them to baseless mechanisation. The emergence of crime fiction in nineteenth-century Britain provided readers with imaginative access to a criminal’s perspective and history as they conflicted with the criminal justice system and its punitive power. Novelists working within the genre re- examined criminality, morality, and justice, often delivering powerful social critiques of extant institutions.

  • Jack Sheppard. the Novel Was So Popular That the Authorities Became Concerned That It Would Incite People Into a Life of Crime
    2 EDITORIAL So summer is finally here at last, and the unlocking of the lockdown is under way – slowly, cautiously, with stumbles and hiccups, but so far, so good. How the giants have been falling from amongst us lately! After Rosalie White, our first Committee Secretary, and Flo Waller before her, now we have lost Chris Macro. Most of us did not have any idea how much Chris used to do, and what a fireball of energy she was. At an age (already!) when most people are settling down with slippers, cat and cocoa, she was Group Leader for Tennis and Badminton (tennis in summer, badminton in winter), organising and setting them both up from scratch. Meanwhile, she used her talent for comedy as a member of the Entertainment Group, and learnt (also from scratch) to play recorder with the our ‘Recorder Consort’. Of her parallel work at Christ Church, and her previous life as an inspirational teacher and children’s author, we only have vague notions. There will be a proper obituary in next month’s issue, written by someone who knew Chris ‘in the round’. So what are you planning to do this summer? Revive your interest in fishing (or try fishing for the first time) with Gordon Taylor? Join the Walking Group, having walked (what else was there to do?) for most of the year as your ‘official’ exercise? Or travel, now it’s (sort of) allowed again? Marcus is offering Iceland – and it’s on the green list! Whatever you have planned, from Crown Green Bowls to Iceland and beyond, the u3a is here to back you up, help you out and push you on your way.

Although Godwin is not usually considered a figure in the romantic movement, there are at least two reasons for his inclusion in Shelley's "circle": first, his influence on his more famous son-in- law was profound; and, second, CW itself contains a romantic element, e.g., the isolated, alienated individual struggling against a threatening, menacing society. For the course work, CT was reviewed in conjunction with The Newgate 2 Calendar, a source which contains the biographies of some of England's most notorious criminals incarcerated at Newgate prison in London. Godwin, noting that he was "extremely conversant" with the had himself cited this work as bearing on the subject of the novel (CW, pp.

  • THE JACK SHEPPARD CRAZE of the 1720S
    Theory and Practice in English Studies Volume 10, No. 1, 2021 E-ISSN: 1805-0859 CLAPPING TO A CRIMINAL: THE JACK SHEPPARD CRAZE OF THE 1720s Klára Škrobánková Abstract Jack Sheppard, a real historical figure executed in 1724 London, became the focus of many biographical publications and theatrical pieces immediately after his demise. This article examines the earliest literary works featuring Sheppard and the way the character of a criminal entered London’s stages. By analyzing the digression from the facts of Sheppard’s life, the tendencies of the popular theatrical genres of the 1720s emerge. Based on two works of art, Thurmond’s Harlequin Sheppard (1724) and Walker’s Quaker’s Opera (1728), one can trace the development of the theatre devices as well as the marketing strategies dramatic authors used to lure the audience into theatres. Both examined pieces were not particularly successful but Thurmond’s pantomime significantly inspired John Gay to write Beggar’s Opera, basing the character of Macheath on Sheppard. Walker then combined the two phenomena – taking the strategies of new ballad operas, he re- purposed the story of Jack Sheppard and adapted it into Quaker’s Opera. Keywords Jack Sheppard, pantomime, ballad opera, eighteenth century, The Beggar’s Opera, biography * * * THE figure of Jack (or John) Sheppard, a London-based criminal executed in the fall of 1724, has periodically emerged on the English stage, significantly influencing English popular culture. Beginning during his lifetime, Sheppard’s popularity con- tinued to grow throughout the 1720s, culminating with the publication and staging of John Gay’s The Beggar’s Opera in 1728.

Abstract This dissertation builds upon the seminal work of Keith Hollingsworth in his The Newgate Novel, 1830-1847 and expands analysis of the contentious Victorian subgenre into the realm of studies in masculinities. Outside of critical opinion that the novels were defined by the reactionary and conservative reception of Victorian reviewers who saw the novels as morally outrageous and socially dangerous, the genre, as this dissertation argues, was markedly concerned with specifically male readerships. Victorian critics were concerned about the effects reading criminal literature had on boys becoming men, and, accordingly, this dissertation argues that the reformative political and social climate of the 1830s and 40s was also a great period of examination and literary reflection upon the growth of the boy into the man.
