  • Agnes Weston, Temperance, and the British Navy Mary A. Conley
    "You Don't Make a Torpedo Gunner Out of a Drunkard:" Agnes Weston, Temperance, and the British Navy Mary A. Conley Public interest in the naval seaman grew dramatically during the second half of the nineteenth century in Britain. Images of the British bluejacket entered the popular imagination through such diverse means as advertising, entertainment, newspapers, politics and philanthropy. Yet these images were hardly consistent. While some representations portrayed naval seamen as dutiful patriotic servants of the Empire, other popular imagery presented them as irresponsible, drunken, gallivanting tars who became social dangers once ashore. The commodification of the sailor is scarcely a substantive reflection upon the real lives of British naval men during this period but rather offers access to the attitudes and anxieties that existed within British society. From the 1870s the Royal Naval Temperance Society (RNTS), under the direction of Agnes Weston, relied upon the recognizable image of the drunken sailor, as well as stories of naval teetotallers, to publicize the cause of naval temperance among subscribers and naval men. This article is an examination of the strategies of Agnes Weston to achieve a d ry British navy. For Weston, temperance was an issue of salvation – of saving drunken souls. Despite her religious motives, Weston justified naval temperance by employing a variety of different arguments in order to garner the attention of both the navy and the public. In pa rticular, Weston appealed to both naval men and subscribers through strategies that evoked duty to family, God, and nation. By categorizing naval temperance as a national, social, and religious imperative, Weston expected to increase the range of its appeal.

Copyright and re-use policy See http://shura.shu.ac.uk/information.html Sheffield Hallam University Research Archive http://shura.shu.ac.uk Crossing the Line: Women and the Railway Mission 1881-1901 Anne Mallery A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Sheffield Hallam University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2018 Abstract This thesis explores the lives and work of the women who worked for the Railway Mission during the last two decades of the nineteenth century. The Railway Mission was established in 1881 with the aim of evangelising the large railway workforce of the late-Victorian period. Significant numbers of women worked for the Mission: they have, to date, been hidden from history. This thesis combines Mission records with census and related data to give an unprecedented insight into their lives and work. The thesis adds a new dimension to the study of women’s religious and philanthropic work. Whereas previous research has focused mainly on women’s work with other women and with children, this thesis explores women’s work within the male- dominated environment of the Victorian railway industry. The study contributes to current debates about the flexibility of ‘separate spheres’ in its examination of the ways in which women moved fluidly between the home and the industrialised spaces of Victorian railway infrastructure.
