About the Course
In this course, Dr Sarah Richardson (University of Warwick) explores British politics between the start of the French Revolution in 1789 to the Great Reform Act of 1832. As we move through the course, we think about seven key historical questions from the period, including popular reactions to the French Revolution, the nature of Luddism, the impact of the Peterloo Massacre of 1819, and the impact of the Great Reform Act of 1832.
This course is designed for students OCR History AS/A-Level GCE A, Unit Y110 (From Pitt to Peel, 1783-1853), Part I (British Government in the Age of Revolution, 1783-1832).
