Between 1838 and 1852, the leading Chartist newspaper, the Northern Star, published over 1,000 poems by more than 350 poets. As well as examining the critical history of Chartist poetry, this book explores its contribution to the struggle for democratic rights, analysing the interplay between politics, aesthetics and history.
