In recent years, historians and literary scholars have begun to explore an important question: how did Chartist readers read the Northern Star ? Of all the different ways of reading the Star , one of the most well-documented and revealing was the group reading experience – an “underrepresented” area in the history of reading. Friends and neighbours or workmates clubbed together to buy a shared copy (at 4½d.); after selecting a reader, they listened as a group to an oral reading of that week’s issue and took part, sometimes paragraph by paragraph, in a far-ranging and often heated discussion of its contents. Readers and listeners engaged with a variety of different texts: the weekly letter from Feargus O’Connor, Chartist and parliamentary speeches and news, letters from Chartist prisoners, and financial accounts of the National Charter Association. Grounded in the practices and problems of working-class life, these oral and collective readings point to the interplay of print and oral cultures and to the crucial roles of sociability and discussion for Chartist listeners and readers.","PeriodicalId":46254,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Social History","volume":"464 1","pages":"1-17"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2026-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149123320","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

He worked as an itinerant agricultural worker in the Ballarat and Castlemaine area of Victoria before returning to Wales in 1894. For almost sixty years, he assiduously maintained a diary, which probably comprised fifty-eight volumes in all. This article examines the twenty-five annual volumes that survive for his Australian years. The article investigates Jenkins’s phenomenal sequence of diaries in order to understand the literary culture of a lower-class poet (in Welsh) and writer. I explore Jenkins’s reading and his epistolary activity, as well as the dynamics of his diaries, to demonstrate the purpose and function of the written word in the life of the labourer commonly known as “The Welsh Swagman”. Reading and writing preserved a connection with his distant homeland and with Welsh culture. He was an “intensive” reader, repeatedly turning to a small number of religious texts. His diary serves as an example of “ordinary writings” – the raw materials of a new history from below, one that recognizes the importance of individual experience and reveals the often-underestimated textual practices of the subordinate classes.","PeriodicalId":46254,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Social History","volume":"129 1","pages":"1-20"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2026-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148693477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
