The chief target of those accusations was the returned New England minister Hugh Peter, whose charitable efforts to transport young, orphaned Londoners to Massachusetts Bay during the early months of 1643 were recast by Charles I’s royalist writers into a conspiracy theory that centered on the threat to king, church, and state of godly miseducation in faraway New England. The article thus unpacks this royalist fixation on malevolent godly spiritual instruction for the first time, both as it percolated in loyalist print throughout the 1640s and into the Restoration, while also contributing to existing scholarship on the histories of childhood, labor, and the British Atlantic world.","PeriodicalId":46738,"journal":{"name":"Journal of British Studies","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149221372","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The American Revolution transformed the political landscape of the British Atlantic far more rapidly than it transformed the social world that had long bound the empire’s regions together. Before 1776, merchants, planters, and imperial officials had built enduring ties of commerce, kinship, and property spanning North America, the Caribbean, and Britain. Drawing on the lives and correspondence of Gouverneur Morris, the Manning-Vaughan-Laurens family, and Richard Oswald, this article argues that inherited patterns of social life and interpersonal ties remained integral to the experience of cross-colonial elites, despite the constitutional rupture of independence.","PeriodicalId":46738,"journal":{"name":"Journal of British Studies","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149187938","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It argues that the North American imperial crisis of 1762–83 drove increased fiscal reliance on Asian revenues and a renewed East India Company incursion into Bengal’s forested and tribal areas. Intensified revenue extraction and infiltration into self-governing tribal areas restructured traditional subsistence systems and fell disproportionately on women, whose forest-based labor was rendered invisible in colonial revenue accounting.","PeriodicalId":46738,"journal":{"name":"Journal of British Studies","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149093255","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since then, there has been much work focused on the origins of evangelicalism and exploring its characteristics, spirituality, and religious essence. Another significant trend has been literature that has set the British movement within a wider international context. This article identifies several areas of growth in recent studies of evangelicalism in Britain: network analysis grounded in manuscript as well as printed sources; emphasis on the connection between evangelicalism and Dissent; and the integration of religious history into social history. Recent works under review include two monographs on the formative “Clapham Sect” period, a collection of essays exploring the relationship between evangelicalism and Dissent, an overview of evangelical social action, and the first volume of the edited diaries of Anthony Ashley-Cooper, later seventh Earl of Shaftesbury. Areas for further scholarly exploration include a four-nations perspective that integrates the study of evangelicalism in England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales; the role of women in British evangelicalism; and the role of evangelicalism in shaping Britain in the twentieth century.","PeriodicalId":46738,"journal":{"name":"Journal of British Studies","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149124033","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"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 controversy surrounding the lightning strike at the Royal Gunpowder Magazine at Purfleet-on-Thames in 1777 to explore how political conflict shaped scientific authority during the American Revolution. Although Benjamin Franklin’s theory of electricity and pointed lightning conductors had achieved broad acceptance within the Royal Society, the Purfleet incident enabled his long-standing rival, Benjamin Wilson, to revive discredited criticisms by appealing to patriotic sentiment and royal patronage rather than experimental evidence. Drawing on correspondence, Royal Society records, published pamphlets, and committee reports, this article demonstrates that the scientific consensus remained firmly in Franklin’s favor even as political opposition to the American cause reshaped public perceptions and institutional priorities. The Purfleet controversy reveals how political allegiance could influence scientific institutions, redirect research agendas, and transform the public presentation of science without overturning established scientific knowledge.","PeriodicalId":46738,"journal":{"name":"Journal of British Studies","volume":"52 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149124463","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Jackson Women’s Health Organization</jats:italic> , Justice Samuel Alito cites the Ellenborough Act of 1803, the first statutory prohibition of abortion in the Anglo-American common law system, and endorses one interpretation of the bill as an effort to protect fetal rights. However, the reasons behind Lord Ellenborough’s decision to criminalize abortion have been unclear to historians, especially given the common law’s historical indifference to abortion and the absence of general outcry over the practice at the time the bill was passed. This article argues the Act’s origins instead lay in Ellenborough’s professional history as counsel for the Merchants of Liverpool in their opposition to various abolitionist bills before Parliament between 1792 and 1799. The article incorporates data collected from the first comprehensive review of nineteenth-century abortion trials held in England and Wales, whose statistics on domestic, birth-related prosecutions illustrate that abortion was not a crime the criminal justice system was interested in punishing. Instead, using Ellenborough’s personal and professional papers, the article argues that the 1803 statute should be interpreted through Ellenborough’s sustained commitment to the protection of private property and the defense of the institution of slavery.","PeriodicalId":46738,"journal":{"name":"Journal of British Studies","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149124464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Public hunger for news about the American crisis and conflict accelerated newspaper circulation, profitability, and competition, with metropolitan and provincial newspapers increasingly bypassing government channels to report events more quickly. The results were more robust and intricate national and global information networks, as well as a press that was more commercially driven and independent—ultimately enabling British readers to scrutinize the empire's actions with the same rigor they applied to domestic politics.","PeriodicalId":46738,"journal":{"name":"Journal of British Studies","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148915452","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

North America and India have often appeared as distinct, sequential chapters in the history of the British Empire. This article builds on the scholarship of P. J. Marshall and others to demonstrate the myriad ways in which these two far-flung places were bound together in British imperial plans and projects during the years leading up to the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776. Importantly, even before the American Revolutionary War broke out, the possible loss of North America had already begun to inform how some Britons argued about the importance of the British presence in India. In thinking of North America and India together before 1776, such Britons regularly undermined the frameworks of the Atlantic and Indian oceans and the “First” and “Second British Empires” that have either implicitly or explicitly shaped so much twentieth- and twenty-first century scholarship.","PeriodicalId":46738,"journal":{"name":"Journal of British Studies","volume":"204 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148915449","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It argues that obscured in the existing literature about the aspiration to create a Catholic university in Ireland—the so-called “Irish University Question”—is a story about the way the Queen’s Colleges embodied a desire for a post-sectarian future that trained Irish men for imperial careers. The article traces the development of the competitive examinations in changing the selection process for members of the Indian Civil Service, and it looks at the ways that the Queen’s Colleges used students’ successes in competitive examinations to defend their institutions from the onslaught of criticism by the Irish Catholic Church. The article concludes by exploring the demise of the Queen’s University, and its replacement by the Royal Irish University, and how even by the 1880s imperial service still formed a central pillar in the identity, ethos, and purpose of the Queen’s Colleges.","PeriodicalId":46738,"journal":{"name":"Journal of British Studies","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148709590","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
