A thematic analysis of the career of Bronterre OBrien, one of the most influential leaders of Chartism, this book relates his activitiesand the Chartist movementto broader themes in the history of Britain, Europe, and America during the nineteenth century. OBrien (180464) came to be known as the schoolmaster of Chartism because of his efforts to describe and explain its intellectual foundations. The campaign for the Peoples Charter (with its promise of political democratization) was a highpoint in OBriens career as writer and orator, but he was already well known before the campaign began, and during the 1840s he distanced himself from other Chartist leaders and from several important Chartist initiatives. This book examines the personal, tactical, and ideological reasons for OBriens departure, as well as his development of a social and economic agenda to accompany constitutional Chartism, in line with the evolution of radical thought after the Great Reform Act of 1832. It also evaluates OBriens reputation, among his contemporaries and among modern historians, in order better to understand his contribution to radicalism in Britain and beyond.
