The Trinity Circle
The Trinity Circle is about the group of Cambridge scholars, chiefly at Trinity College, who sought to resist aggressive utilitarianism and industrial materialism in early Victorian England by building and defending their vision of a liberal education. William Whewell is the hero of this book because of his life-long membership at Trinity and his extensive archive in the Wren Library. He called Trinity his second home. The son of a master carpent…
Only Connect
In nineteenth-century Britain, learned societies and clubs became contested sites in which a new kind of identity was created: the charisma and persona of the scholar, of the intellectual. In the early modern period the subject of knowledge was dogma. Early modern knowledge was often tied to confessional tests and state-building. One road to modernity could be read as escape from institutional and confessional restraints to the freedom of reason.…

London Clubland: A Cultural History of Gender and Class Late Victorian Britain, by Amy Milne-Smith. New York, Palgrave Macmillan, 2011, xi, 296 pp. US $85.00 (cloth). Not many years past, the Reform Club turfed out Lady Renouf of Kensington because she had entertained David Irving to lunch too frequently. Lady Renouf has been described as a woman in her fifties. She married Sir Frank (the bank) Renouf, from New Zealand. She had charmed herself in…
Liberal Intellectuals and Public Culture in Modern Britain, 1815-1914
This book is a study of nineteenth-century liberalism, understood as a process rather than a philosophy, policy or ideology. Liberal Intellectuals and Public Culture in Modern Britain shows how liberal values reconstructed public space in Britain after the repeal of the Test and Corporations Acts [1828] and the passage of Catholic emancipation [1829]. It traces the century-long process against subscription to the Thirty-Nine Articles. It examines…
The Forgotten Prime Minister
Roman Catholicism in the University of Cambridge
The question in 1898 of the recognition by Cambridge University of St Edmund's House, a Roman Catholic foundation, might initially seem to involve questions irrelevant in the modern university. It can, however, be seen to raise issues concerning modernity, the place of religion in the university and the role of the university itself. This article therefore sets this incident in university history in wider terms and examines the ways in which the …

Knowledge communities in Europe from the Renaissance through the Cold War
This article examines Karl Mannheim's famous characterisation of the organisers of knowledge as an 'unanchored relatively classless stratum'. It looks closely at Ficino's Florentine Academy, Cesi's Accademia dei Lincei, the authors of the Encyclopédie, William Whewell and his circle at Cambridge, G. H. Hardy and the London Mathematical Society, Sartre and French intellectuals in the 1940s and 50s, and finally Thomas Kuhn and the Society of Fellow…
Religion in the University
Authority, honour and the Strachey family, 1817-1974
The Strachey family, like other professional families in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, transformed concepts of honour and authority. Rather than rooting such concepts in the values of birth and wealth, the Stracheys realized and utilized the ironic possibilities in the conventions of their time to reshape their understanding of the ways that they fit into the world. The Stracheys were a literary family. In things Indian and imperial, in…
Making words Flesh
Contesting Cultural Authority
The Liberals and the National Question
Republics Ancient and Modern
The Savage Within
This article examines the development of British social anthropology between 1885 and 1945, focusing on the interplay between the discipline's intellectual project and the social anxieties of the period. It argues that anthropologists, grappling with issues of cultural difference and social evolution, projected anxieties about British society onto the "primitive" cultures they studied. The article explores how concerns about social degeneration, …
Elites and the Wealthy in Modern British History
Radicals and moderates in the Liberal party in 1886
Irish Home Rule and the Social Basis of the Great Separation in the Liberal Party in 1886
Though Mr Gladstone was speaking of the opposition to home rule in the country, rather than in the parliamentary Liberal party alone in the statement quoted above, this has become the rather standard interpretation of the great separation in the Liberal party in 1886. As one modern historian of the Liberal disruption puts it, ‘a striking characteristic of modern British history has been the class alignment of political parties... The Liberal Unio…
