Imperial Heartland
Working-class Britons played a crucial role in the pioneering settlement and integration of South Asians in imperial Britain. Using a host of new and neglected sources, Imperial Heartland revises the history of early South Asian immigration to Britain, focusing on the northern English city of Sheffield. Rather than viewing immigration through the lens of inevitable conflict, this study takes an alternative approach, situating mixed marriages and …

Toffee Men, Travelling Drapers and Black-Market Perfumers–South Asian Networks of Petty Trade in Early Twentieth Century Britain
Selling small wares, novelties, and affordable luxuries manufactured from artificial silk, the South Asian door-to-door pedlar or 'travelling draper', and his compatriot the 'Indian toffee man', were once fairly commonplace figures in British working-class life and the object of fond childhood recollections for many. Unfortunately, they have now largely drifted from popular memory, having left little trace in the historical record. However, this …
The Social Networks of South Asian Migrants in the Sheffield Area During the Early Twentieth Century
This study presents evidence of the migration of Indians, mostly Muslim former 'lascar' seafarers, and their non-maritime employment and settlement in the Sheffield area. This process began during the First World War and the study analyses data up until the beginning of the era identified as that of mass-migration and marked by the British Nationality Act,1948. The evidence for Sheffield-area settlement challenges current understanding of interwa…
The 1939 Register’
http://www.findmypast.co.uk/1939 Just four weeks after the 1939 declaration of war on Germany, the British state surveyed the entire population of the United Kingdom. The resulting Register, compiled according to the provisions of the National Registration Act 1939, was intended to enable a national system of identity cards. Although not officially a census, the 1939 Register was compulsory and covered 41 million individuals across the United Kin…

The Creeds of Nicea and Constantinople Reexamined
Even the most casual reader will be wrenched up short by the title of Giuseppe Luigi Dossetti's superb book, ll Simbolo [!] di Nicea e di Costantinopoli. How is it possible to speak as if Christendom's first two ecumenical councils produced the same creed? One automatically expects i simboli, but Dossetti insists that he means what he says, and, while he relies upon the works of Lebon, Kelly and Ritter for the primary exposition of the theory, he…
The Earliest Text of the Old Roman Symbol
One of the curiosities of the scholarly enterprise is the fact that often what tends to advance the handling and interpretation of data with respect to one problem has the side effect of preventing adequate and imaginative treatment of related problems. This appears to be the case in recent creedal research. The question of the earliest text of vetus symbolum romanum has been obscured, rather than clarified, by the important recognition at the ha…
