Extract

What happened to Britain’s ‘age of reform’? Thirty years ago, we knew what the phrase meant. It described a concentrated era of Whig-led constitutional, legislative, and administrative change in the 1830s, which continued in some respects into the 1840s. Most scholarship in the area dealt with ‘high’ politics and central government, and the field was defined by historians such as Richard Brent, Peter Mandler and Ian Newbould. Since then, the ‘age of reform’ has found itself stretched out in both directions, now starting as early as the 1780s, and ending as late as the 1860s. Historians have also bent it into alternative shapes, looking well beyond the political centre in order to accommodate new concerns around ‘popular’ politics, political culture and imperial contexts. Jay R. Roszman’s book, while fully aware of recent historiographical developments, invites us to return to the older conception of the ‘age of reform’, and to rethink it in a different way. His excellent monograph deserves to take its place alongside the other standard studies.
