Book Description
Thornton also sheds light on areas where popular culture and politics were uneasily interlinked: the powerful political influence of those outside elite groups; the variations in political culture across the country; and the considerable continuing power of mystical, supernatural, and 'non-rational' ideas in British social and political life into the nineteenth century."--Jacket.

Book Description
Excerpt from Nixon's Cheshire Prophecies: Reprinted and Edited From the Best Sources, and Including a Copy of the Prophecy From an Unpublished Manuscript, With an Introductory Essay on Popular Prophecies It is Cicero who says I know of no nation whatever, however civilised and learned, or however barbarous and savage, which does not believe it possible that future events may be indicated, and understood, and predicted, by certain persons. It is certain that in every age there have been persons either claiming, or credited with a mysterious power of foreseeing the future course of events. Amongst the ancients prophecy was in high repute, and very remarkable instances of the fulfilment of pro phecy are given by the classical writers. In many of the ancient prophecies, an ambiguity in the terms led to the expectation of a different event from that by which it was fulfilled. It was announced to Cambyses that he would die at Ecbatana, by which he under stood the celebrated Median city, whereas he really ended his days at an out-of-the-way Ecbatana in Syria.
