Utilising company documents, including floor plans, letters, diaries, committee minutes, and a handful of published accounts, it juxtaposes the distinct careers of two employees: the essayist and poet Charles Lamb, who toiled in the Accountant’s Office, and the philosopher John Stuart Mill, who worked in the Office of the Examiner of Indian Correspondence. In so doing, it shows how India House between 1800 and 1857 occupied a crucial transitional stage in the history of office design; relates the spatial configurations of these two offices to different governing rationalities of the workplace; and offers a visual semblance of areas of the East India Company’s headquarters that were vital to its operations but have gone largely undocumented.","PeriodicalId":43904,"journal":{"name":"London Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48299643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The article builds on recent research on punishment in mostly rural workhouses, with a study of the punishment of young women in the metropolitan workhouse of St Marylebone. It complements David Green’s research into discipline and unrest in London workhouses and builds on Alysa Levene’s work on St Marylebone under the Old Poor Law. Local and national sources are confected to highlight different perspectives, providing a deeper and more holistic understanding of abuse in the workhouse, through the prisms of punishment and agency. In doing so, the article addresses critical gaps in the historiography of the New Poor Law in London and more widely. Specifically, it argues that the understanding of punishment has, to date, been too simplistic and suggests that it is useful to reconceptualise punishment as a matrix, where anyone could be punished, including officials, and where everyone had, to some extent, agency.","PeriodicalId":43904,"journal":{"name":"London Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42984126","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

No such re-enactment of mayoral pageantry has taken place in London since 1988. The organisers – myself and Robert Crighton of Beyond Shakespeare – are very grateful to all those who supported, participated in, and applauded this ephemeral taster of Edward Barkham’s inauguration festivities. We are also indebted to St Mary le Bow church and the Worshipful Company of Founders, and to the various organisations that funded Triumph 1621: the Society for Renaissance Studies, Cheapside Business Alliance, and Bath Spa University. Finally, we thank The London Journal for publishing these two ‘perspectives’ on Triumph 1621.","PeriodicalId":43904,"journal":{"name":"London Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46164931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article investigates the context for this story by examining contemporary uses of foundation narratives for important institutions of London life, including the city, corporation and mayoralty. These foundation legends grew from a distinctive urban ‘historical culture’. This article argues that historical culture and foundation legends were important means of cultivating cultural prestige, defining the purposes of institutions, discussing the power relationships between different political institutions and engaging in political communication. By comparing the ‘Walsh’ legend to other variants of the London mayoral origin story, we can discern contemporary political debates about the purpose, powers and political control of key institutions in London life.","PeriodicalId":43904,"journal":{"name":"London Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45004740","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article examines the role of these immigrant communities within the production, and textual reproduction, of James’s royal entry. The pageant records present contrasting approaches to the multiculturalism of early modern London. The first, represented by Thomas Dekker’s official pageant text The Magnificent Entertainment, divides the city into ‘the English’ and ‘the strangers’, whose presence is celebrated for the symbolic possibilities of creating unity out of multiplicity. In the second approach, recoverable within the Italian and Dutch arches, immigrant populations maintain their distinct identities as unified communities possessing the historical and cultural right to welcome James to their city.","PeriodicalId":43904,"journal":{"name":"London Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45003893","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In fact, the early modern mountebank in London was a player known for many kinds of motion—geographical itinerancy, rhetorical circumlocution, and even appropriative journeys from bank to theatre to print. This article articulates the mountebank’s license to roam physically and representationally across London as a kind of theatrical vagrancy, one that begs the question not only of where theatre can exist in urban space, but how—how a physically and rhetorically unfixed performance can still be recognised by an audience as a performance. Playing with and across space, as this article argues, is perhaps one of the most crucial of the mountebank’s many ‘impossible’ feats.","PeriodicalId":43904,"journal":{"name":"London Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42411744","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By comparing how hawkers were regulated in the two capitals between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries, this article extends our knowledge of irregular work to two of the period’s largest cities and argues that historians should consider informality as a social process, rather than a fixed economic category. It examines, in turn, how food hawkers were hard to distinguish from other rule-breaking retailers, how governors issued food-selling licences, and how hawker regulation also involved managing public space and related to gender and social status. Instead of clamping down completely, London aldermen and Neapolitan eletti gave licence to food hawking when it was useful and stayed within standards of behaviour. Deciding who was allowed to sell food and how were finely balanced questions of governance in the expanding early modern metropolis.","PeriodicalId":43904,"journal":{"name":"London Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46948151","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
