This study of English popular radicalism during the period between the anti-Jacobin government 'Terror' of the 1790s and the beginnings of Chartism challenges conventional distinctions between 'high' and 'low' culture, revealing the links between the political underworld and literary culture, poverty, crime and prophetic religion.
