  • Physical-Force Chartism: the Cotton District and the Chartist Crisis of 1839*
    ROBERTSYKES PHYSICAL-FORCE CHARTISM: THE COTTON DISTRICT AND THE CHARTIST CRISIS OF 1839* There is a real need to integrate local and national approaches to the study of Chartism. The inadequacies of the pioneering studies of the national movement certainly revealed the need to return to the local roots of the movement.' However, the pattern of local studies largely established by the important volume of Chartist Studies edited by Asa Briggs has had some unfortunate consequences.2 The attempt to provide a comprehensive account of Chartism in a given locality, and cover the entire period from 1838 to 1848, has often precluded extended examination of key issues. Such matters as the relationship between Chartism and other forms of popular protest, Chartist ideology and tactics, the relationship between the Char- tists and the middle class, and the whole cultural and organisational dimen- sion of Chartism have only recently begun to receive detailed analysis.3 There has been a marked tendency for one of the most remarkable aspects of Chartism, the extent to which diverse localities were united in a national movement, to be obscured. Indeed it is evident that many historians returned to the local roots of Chartism without adequate assessments of Chartist ideology, tactics, national organisation and national leadership. Some important recent work has done much to enhance our understanding of such matters.4 A more meaningful assessment of how events in the localities interacted with the national movement is now possible. * I am grateful for the valuable comments of Dr I. J. Prothero and Mrs Dorothy Thompson on an early draft of this article.

  • Tyranny, Work and Politics: the 1818 Strike Wave in the English Cotton District*
    ROBERT G. HALL TYRANNY, WORK AND POLITICS: THE 1818 STRIKE WAVE IN THE ENGLISH COTTON DISTRICT* SUMMARY: Critics of E. P. Thompson have questioned his emphasis on the ties between radicalism and trade unionism in early nineteenth-century England; histo- rians have likewise described the 1818 strikes as simple wage disputes in which the radicals played a negligible role. This essay challenges these assumptions about the 1818 strikes and radicalism. In the summer of 1818, when a wide range of grievances touched off the strike wave, the radicals rallied to the side of the trades and sometimes served as leaders of the strikes; that summer the radicals and striking trades also drew upon and contributed to a shared repertoire of old and new tactics and forms of action. On 1 September, near the end of the long, hot summer of 1818, five hundred mule spinners marched from Manchester to Sandy Brow, in Stock- port, where a crowd of several thousand had gathered for a meeting which marked the climax of the trade militancy and radicalism of that summer, a summer rife with rumors about plans for "a general insurrection of all the labouring classes".1 During the previous four months, almost a dozen trades had abandoned the workshops, pits, and factories of Manchester and its environs, and only three weeks before, over fifteen trades had joined together to form a general union of all trades, the Philanthropic Society, for "Trade and Reform".2 On that rainy afternoon at Sandy Brow, John Bagguley and Samuel Drummond, veterans of the radical campaign of * I am indebted to Jim Epstein, Doug Flamming, and Mel McKiven for their valuable comments on earlier versions of this article.

"T ANCASHIRE fair women," says the old -^—^ proverb, but the County Palatine is famous not only for its witches, real and imaginary, but also for the memorable historic events that have taken place within its borders, for the quaint and curious customs that have survived from past ages, and for the quick life of its populous industrial districts. These varied interests are reflected in the pages of " Bygone Lancashire," by the good-will of a number of Lancashire authors and antiquaries who have contributed papers in elucidation of the annals and associa- tions of a county memorable alike in the past and the present. The best thanks of the Editor are tendered to his contributors, to Mr. William Hewitson for the loan of the engraving of the Covell brass, and 534806 LIBRARY PREFACE. to the Council of the Lancashire and Cheshire Antiquarian Society for permission to use Rosworm's portrait.
