1820: Scottish Rebellion

Essays on a Nineteenth-Century Insurrection

Kevin Gallagher , Ed. Gerard Carruthers , Illus. Craig Lamont et al
New Hardback Illustrated

Postscript summary

In this collection of 13 essays contributors question the conventional historical interpretations of the Rising of 1820 by focusing on how the law, the church, civil institutions and local politics responded to the radicals. Among the topics discussed are the conservative and authoritarian approach of government in 1820; local insurrection; the Glasgow Herald as mouthpiece of the authorities; poet and hand-loom weaver Alexander Rodger; and commemoration of radical history in Scottish museums.
