Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reminiscences of Manchester: Fifty Years Ago If justification were needed for its publication, it will be found in the wide interest which its contents excited as they appeared in the columns of the Mam/zester Czb' Nam. Such a step as their appearance in book form was the farthest thing imaginable from the mind of the author when he sent his first chapter to the editor of that journal, his expectation then being that all he had to say would be completed in some half-dozen or dozen chapters. As he proceeded, however, his work grew under his hand, a result which was fostered by a classification of the subjects.

No less than the following eight persons, named in the preceding pages, have departed this life since these lines first appeared in print: --Mr. Thomas Slagg, mentioned on page 21, a younger brother of the late Mr. John Slagg. He had retired from business, and had resided at Lytham for many years. I knew him well, and before his leaving Manchester, was very intimate with him. He was a friendly and somewhat jovial man. Miss Geraldine E. Jewsbury, the novelist, named on page 65, died on the 23rd of September, 1880. The Lady referred to on page 82, as possessing a Bible and Prayer Book purchased at the shop of Mr. Charles Ambery. She died August 9th, 1880, aged 65 years. Whilst she lived, she took great interest in the production of these Reminiscences, and, had she been spared, would have been gratified in seeing their completion in their present shape. Mr. Thomas Roworth, bookseller, of St. Ann's Square, mentioned page 85, died January 13th, 1881, aged 65 years, having been born on the day on which the battle of Waterloo was fought. He was greatly respected by all who knew him. Mr. Edward Goodall, carpet dealer, King Street. He originally came from Heckmondwike, more than fifty years ago, and established a very extensive business, in the shop which still retains his name. He had been a teetotaler the greater part of his life, and died a bachelor, at more than eighty years of age, at his residence at Sale, having been a friend of mine for more than forty years. Miss Elizabeth Ronchettt, (page 98, ) eldest daughter of Mr. Joshua Ronchetti, a maker of hydrometers, &c., next door to the shop in which I was an apprentice and afterwards an assistant. After living in Salford for many years, she latterly went to reside at Southport, where.

Download or read book The Story of Manchester written by Dr Deborah Woodman and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2017-08-01 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This richly illustrated history explores every aspect of life in Manchester. Manchester is noted for the 'Industrial Revolution' – its factories, working-class people and urban development all based around its production of cotton textiles. But this is not the complete story. Manchester has always been a more vibrant place which dates back to Roman times. This book traces the development of this important city and its people from the earliest times to the present, where each period in its progress links to the next. The history of Manchester is very much based around its people, who were often pioneers, whether this be the first railway line, the first public library, fighting for greater political rights, or key wealth creators for the nation. As we advance through the twenty-first century, Manchester's role in the United Kingdom remains undiminished as it becomes ever more cosmopolitan and a northern powerhouse of economic, social and political progress.

Download or read book The Victorian Music Hall written by Dagmar Kift and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1996-10-24 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the exception of the occasional local case study, music-hall history has until now been presented as the history of the London halls. This book attempts to redress the balance by setting music-hall history within a national perspective. Kift also sheds a new light on the roles of managements, performers and audiences. For example, the author confutes the commonly held assumption that most women in the halls were prostitutes and shows them to have been working women accompanied by workmates of both sexes or by their families. She argues that before the 1890s the halls catered predominantly to working-class and lower middle-class audiences of men and women of all ages and were instrumental in giving them a strong and self-confident identity. The hall's ability to sustain a distinct class-awareness was one of their greatest strengths - but this factor was also at the root of many of the controversies which surrounded them. These controversies are at the centre of the book and Kift treats them as test cases for social relations which provide fresh insights into nineteenth-century British society and politics.

Download or read book The Intellectual Life of the British Working Classes written by Jonathan Rose and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Which books did the British working classes read--and how did they read them? How did they respond to canonical authors, penny dreadfuls, classical music, school stories, Shakespeare, Marx, Hollywood movies, imperialist propaganda, the Bible, the BBC, the Bloomsbury Group? What was the quality of their classroom education? How did they educate themselves? What was their level of cultural literacy: how much did they know about politics, science, history, philosophy, poetry, and sexuality? Who were the proletarian intellectuals, and why did they pursue the life of the mind? These intriguing questions, which until recently historians considered unanswerable, are addressed in this book. Using innovative research techniques and a vast range of unexpected sources, The Intellectual Life of the British Working Classes tracks the rise and decline of the British autodidact from the pre-industrial era to the twentieth century. It offers a new method for cultural historians--an "audience history" that recovers the responses of readers, students, theatergoers, filmgoers, and radio listeners. Jonathan Rose provides an intellectual history of people who were not expected to think for themselves, told from their perspective. He draws on workers’ memoirs, oral history, social surveys, opinion polls, school records, library registers, and newspapers. Through its novel and challenging approach to literary history, the book gains access to politics, ideology, popular culture, and social relationships across two centuries of British working-class experience.
