I Was acquainted at this time with a young' curate, with whem I had somo time boforo made a pedestrian tour through somo of the most beautiful portions of the beautiful county of Kent, and who had lately exchanged his first curacy at Haverstock Hill for a similar engagement in the district of SL Philip, Bcthnal Green. On tho occasion of my first visit to him after this change, our conversation turned upon hemo missions, and I was led to make some remarks, derived from my own observation, upon the incompetency of many of thc Beripture-readora, whose mission-fields were the' industrial quarters of our large towns, for the accomplishment of the end for which they wero appointed. They may be tolerably well qualified to deal with the indifferent and the ignorant, I observed; but they are utterly incompetent to remove the doubts or meet the arguments of the many intelligentmen to bo found in largo towns who reject the ISible as a divine revelation.

The Rise of Victorian Caricature
Author: Ian Haywood
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030346595
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
This book serves as a retrieval and reevaluation of a rich haul of comic caricatures from the turbulent years between the Reform Bill crisis of the early 1830s and the rise and fall of Chartism in the 1840s. With a telling selection of illustrations, this book deploys the techniques of close reading and political contextualization to demonstrate the aesthetic and ideological clout of a neglected tranche of satirical prints and periodicals dismissed as ineffectual by historians or distasteful by contemporaries. The prime exhibits are the work of Robert Seymour and C.J. Grant giving acerbic comic edge to the case for reform against class and state oppression and the excesses of the monarchical regime under the young Queen Victoria.
