  • An Anglo-Irish Radical in the Late Georgian Metropolis: Peter Finnerty and the Politics of Contempt

  • Jonathan Jeffrey Wright
  • Journal:
    Journal of British Studies / Volume 53 / Issue 3 / July 2014
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    26 August 2014, pp. 660-684

  • This article focuses on the Irish-born metropolitan radical and parliamentary journalist Peter Finnerty, exploring, in particular, the distinctive nature of his political engagement. Chiefly remembered as a friend of William Hazlitt and an implacable opponent of Lord Castlereagh, Finnerty was an influential figure in his own right, who moved between a range of social and political spaces. Framing him as an unrepentant Irish radical, indifferent to the coercive power of authority, this article will examine Finnerty's involvement in a range of scandals, controversies, and causes célèbres, and will highlight the ways in which he succeeded, through enacting a contempt for authority, in subverting both the courtroom and Parliament itself.

  • Performing Multiculturalism: The Commonwealth Arts Festival of 1965

  • Radhika Natarajan
  • Journal:
    Journal of British Studies / Volume 53 / Issue 3 / July 2014
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    26 August 2014, pp. 705-733

  • The Commonwealth Arts Festival of 1965 was an important moment of postimperial reengagement. Over three weeks, Britain hosted visual artists, musicians, dancers, poets, and writers representing national cultures, who together presented a diverse Commonwealth assembled in terms of egalitarian multiculturalism. This article examines the investments of individual nations in participating in this festival to argue for the transnational production of multiculturalism at the end of empire. As a postimperial phenomenon, Commonwealth multiculturalism depended on the legibility of distinct national cultures assembled through an equitable framework. Governments sponsored representative cultural forms in response to domestic political circumstances and international economic needs, and against the imperial aesthetic hierarchies of the past. Examining the diverse interests assembled through the festival is essential to understanding the legacies of imperial power for more seemingly democratic frameworks of difference.
