Internet Links on Chartism
Chartism is not well served on the Internet. The great majority of sites which refer to Chartism are academic studies, only suitable for students in the 16-19 age range. Some of those listed below belong in that category, but with careful teacher guidance they can be of use to a wider age range.
- Moral Force Chartism
http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/CHmoral.htm
Part of the Spartacus website, containing a historical encyclopaedia on a wide range of historical topics and some useful links. This page outlines the origins of Chartism and describes the dilemma of whether to use violent or peaceful methods of protest to convince a government which showed little interest in the Chartists' proposals.
- Introduction to Chartism
http://www.uoguelph.ca/englit/victorian/INTRO/inchart.html
The introductory page to an extensive resource on Chartism with academic commentary and source material. Pitched at the A Level student, but useful for teachers and able GCSE students.
- Reference and collected works on Chartism
http://stange.simplenet.com/chartism/reference.html
An extensive bibliography of works on Chartism including both primary and secondary sources.
