Thomas Cooper

AbstractHis admirers assert that the first English dictionary was Johnson’s but this is denied by antagonists who cite late medieval and early Renaissance lexicographers such as Thomas Elyot, Thomas Cooper and John Florio. The admirers emphasize Johnson’s merit above earlier authors and assert innovations to the form. This paper shows both views are limited and lexicography has a much greater antiquity seen in Athenaeus and earlier. All these works, which were composed over thousands of years, did not come from Evolution where Athenaeus is a common ancestor. Instead they are products of literary Spontaneous Generation, showing that Homo est animal grammaticum.

This chapter surveys and assesses the growing critical interest in the literature of Chartism. One of the most remarkable aspects of Britain’s first mass democratic movement was its significant output of creative literature. From the late 1830s to the early 1850s Chartist newspapers and periodicals published thousands of poems and a substantial amount of shorter and longer fiction. All this literature—whether written by anonymous and forgotten supporters or by more established Chartist authors such as Thomas Cooper, Ernest Jones and George W. M. Reynolds—combined a passionate commitment to political reform with a striving for new imaginative forms, voices, and narratives. Chartism mounted a direct challenge to the middle- and upper-class domination of both politics and literature, and it is this interweaving of radical politics and aesthetics that has continued to attract scholarly attention.

The City

George Macdonald Bennett was born in the City of Lincoln on 25 October 1892, and was the third of a family of two sons and one daughter. His father, the Rev. John Ebenezer Bennett, B.A. (Dublin), after teaching as an assistant master at a private school at Tring, Hertfordshire, started a school of his own at Peckham Rye and subsequently became a Baptist Minister, first at the Thomas Cooper Memorial Chapel, Lincoln, and later at the Mare Street Baptist Chapel, Hackney. His mother, Hannah Martha Grange, who died in 1932, was the second daughter of William Grange, a farmer of Wigginton, Tring, Hertfordshire. Bennett was named after a friend of his father, George Macdonald, the Scottish poet and novelist. In 1918 he married Doris Laycock, who was the only daughter and eldest child of James Laycock, M.P.S., of Fulham, and who had just taken Part II of the Classical Tripos at Cambridge.
