| Zusammenfassung: | This collection brings together studies of popular performance and politics across the nineteenth century, offering a fresh perspective from an archivally grounded research base. It works with the concept that politics is performative and performance is political. The book is organised into three parts in dialogue regarding specific approaches to popular performance and politics. Part I offers a series of conceptual studies using popular culture as an analytical category for social and political history. Part II explores the ways that performance represents and constructs contemporary ideologies of race, nation and empire. Part III investigates the performance techniques of specific politicians - including Robert Peel, Keir Hardie and Henry Hyndman - and analyses the performative elements of collective movements |

Peter Bailey Indiana University
This collection brings together studies of popular performance and politics
across the long nineteenth century It creates a space in which historians
and theatre scholars can develop a dialogue about the relationship between
representations of politics in the theatre and the theatricality of politics itself.
The essays collected here develop new connections and fresh insights into cultural
politics from an archivally grounded research base. Starting from the concept that
politics is performative and performance is political, it constitutes a dynamic and
innovative intervention into political and cultural history.
Politics, performance and popular culture begins with an investigation of popular
culture as an analytical category for social and political history Chapters examine
the relationship between melodrama and radicalism at the turn of the nineteenth
century the theatre of Chartism, topical commentary in performance.suffragettes
and theatricality and ideas of a national theatre. It goes on to explore the ways in
which performance represents and constructs contemporary ideologies of race,
nation and empire, addressing the Irish question, imperialism and national identity
through studies of pantomime, melodrama and dance history.
The book includes case studies of individual politicians' use of theatrical
techniques, including Robert Peel, Keir Hardie and Henry Hyndman, and an
analysis of collective movements, including political protest. It approaches politics
as a performative activity which drew on nineteenth-century performance
practices. It explores the street as a performance space, and the historiographic
possibilities of using performance as a frame to examine the political.
