La scrittura della storia al suo meglio compulsivo' an wilson questa è una storia delle idee che hanno plasmato non solo londra, ma anche manchester, glasgow, liverpool, leeds, birmingham, sheffield e altre potenze della gran bretagna del xix secolo. Descrive le controversie e le visioni che hanno favorito il più grande rinascimento civico della gran bretagna. Tristram hunt esplora gli orrori della città vittoriana, come visti da dickens, engels e carlyle; l'influenza dell'ideale gotico medievale di fede, comunità e ordine sposato da pugin e ruskin; l'orgoglio per l'autogoverno, identificato con i sassoni in contrapposizione ai normanni; l'identificazione con le repubbliche cittadine del rinascimento italiano - commercio, scambi e clientelismo; il passaggio dal civico al municipale e maggiori poteri su salute, istruzione e alloggi; e infine alla fine del secolo, il ritiro dall'ideale urbano a quello rurale, guidato da william morris e dal movimento della città giardino di ebenezer howard.

Dr Tristram Hunt is Director of the Victoria & Albert Museum and one of Britain's best-known historians. He served as MP for Stoke-on-Trent Central from 2010 to 2017 (when he led the campaign to save the Wedgwood Museum) and as Shadow Secretary of State for Education between October 2013 and September 2015. He was a senior lecturer in British history at Queen Mary, University of London, and has written numerous series for radio and television. His previous books include The English Civil War At First Hand, The Frock-Coated Communist: The Revolutionary Life of Friedrich Engels, Ten Cities that Made an Empire and Building Jerusalem: The Rise and Fall of the Victorian City, between them published in more than a dozen languages.
This is a history of the ideas that shaped not only London, but Manchester, Glasgow, Liverpool, Leeds, Birmingham, Sheffield and other power-houses of 19th-century Britain. It charts the controversies and visions that fostered Britain's greatest civic renaissance. Tristram Hunt explores the horrors of the Victorian city, as seen by Dickens, Engels and Carlyle; the influence of the medieval Gothic ideal of faith, community and order espoused by Pugin and Ruskin; the pride in self-government, identified with the Saxons as opposed to the Normans; the identification with the city republics of the Italian renaissance - commerce, trade and patronage; the change from the civic to the municipal, and greater powers over health, education and housing; and finally at the end of the century, the retreat from the urban to the rural ideal, led by William Morris and the garden-city movement of Ebenezer Howard.
