| description |
Eight essays, plus an introduction by the editor, examine the history of the Victorian middle class and cultural production in the nineteenth century city. Part 1 focuses on the ideological and institutional structure of middle class policy towards the working class and elements within it, including the introduction of the new police; the treatment of the casual poor; attitudes toward the Jewish immigrant community; and the key area of middle class cultural and philanthropic institutions. Part 2 develops the concern with ideological structures into the area of cultural policy and literary production, including the establishment of art as rational recreation; the failure of the poetic mode to emerge in Victorian Manchester; the periodical press as an element in class relations; and the fictional representation of class relations and history in Manchester. Part 3 contains a preliminary bibliography of nineteenth-century Manchester. Contributors are mainly historians. Kidd and Roberts are Senior Lecturers in History at Manchester Polytechnic. Index.
