| | Thomas Babington Macaulay History of England |
 | | Macaulay's heroes were those who stood on the side of the developing powers of Parliament in the struggle to overcome the "autocratic powers of kingship." Such heroes included those who had supported the signing of the Magna Carta (1215), the individually liberalising Protestant Reformation against the reactionary and despotic Catholic Church. | | | It is surely a definite drawback to the credibility of any historian for their readers to be brought to suspect that the work that they are considering may not present a broad and balanced picture. | | | In a speech delivered to the electors of Edinburgh in 1839, for example, his audience were left in no doubt as to Macaulay's devotion to the Whig party. |

| | Reason magazine -- August/September 2000, Confessions of a Macaulay Fan by Walter Olson |
| | Macaulay has a fair claim to being the most influential of the British classical liberals, and few would dispute that he's the most fun to read. | | | Besides, none of those quotes catch the Whig historian in his most characteristic mood: filled with scorn and wrath at how those in government abuse their power. | | | His caustic dismissal of the abstract reasonings of the utilitarian James Mill is perfectly characteristic: "We have here an elaborate treatise on Government, from which, but for one or two passing allusions, it would not appear that the author was aware that any governments actually existed among men." |

| | But the sense of the house was so strongly expressed as unfavourable that, finding they would be beaten if they persisted, the ministry gave way, and reduced apprenticeship to seven years, a compromise which the abolition party accepted; and, Macaulay remained at the board of control. | | | His father, Zachary Macaulay (1768-1838), had been governor of Sierra Leone, and was in 1800 secretary to the chartered company which had founded that colony; an ardent philanthropist, he did much to secure the abolition of the slave trade, and he edited the abolitionist organ, the Christian Observer, for many years. | | | Macaulay made his maiden speech on the 5th of April 1830, On.. |

| | He alleged that Indian histories talked about reigns of kings that were forty-thousand years long and geographies made reference to seas of treacle and whey. | | | There was opposition to Macaulay and his minute in his own times even from members within the colonial establishment. | | | Macaulay may have used insensitive expressions when he talked about his hope that a race of “brown Englishmen” would emerge. |

| | Macaulay lived a life that probably isn't possible any more, that of a scholarly man of business. | | | Macaulay's readers, even schoolboys, were completely familiar with the events he made the subjects of the poems. | | | To them, Macaulay's speculations about what ancient Roman ballads might have been like were probably entertaining in themselves, quite appart from the power of the actual productions. |

| | Thomas Babington Macaulay |
| | Not only was Macaulay very conscious, then, of the importatlce of scaffolding in historical writing -- but he was indeed a consummate master of the art of draping his narrative around that scaffolding in sUch a way that the latter remained for the most part invisible. | | | Taine was perhaps the first to draw attention to the manner in which Macaulay in his History used apparently random anecdotes, illustrations, and allusions to reinforce his major themes. | | | When he devised as a means of exposition the declamatory disquisition, a summary of the arguments that might have been used by various parties to sustain their feelings at critical junctures, he did so because he felt he needed to have an equivalent for the speeches employed by the ancient historians. |

| | Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800-1859) was the son of Zachary Macaulay, a Scotsman whose experience in the West Indies had made him an ardent Abolitionist. | | | Thomas was an infant prodigy, and the extraordinary memory which is borne witness to in his writings was developed at an early age. | | | These articles as now collected are perhaps the most widely known critical and historical essays in the language. |

| | This is the work that gave rise to the term "Whig history", the presentation of historical events as a "progress" from the imperfect past towards the perfect present. | | | During his time, Macaulay wrote his most famous work -- the five-volume (but still lightweight) History of England. | | | He also disputed Mill's notion that men always act in their "self-interest" -- that is either a truism, Macaulay argued, or an empirical falsehood. |

| | After losing his seat, Macaulay brought out the work that remains a best-seller, his The History of England (1848-55) from James I (1688). | | | His political career began in the House of Commons as a Whig member for the borough of Calne, and then for Leeds. | | | In this period he brought out his immensely popular Lays of Ancient Rome (1842), out of which generations of school-children were taught the story of Horatius. |

| | THE HISTORY OF ENGLAND - Thomas Macaulay - Penguin Group (USA) |
| | Though the theme of his History is clearly defined - the 1688 Revolution and the reign of William III which effectively consolidated that Revolution - it succeeds in presenting Macaulay's interpretation of the whole course of English history. | | | He possessed an unerring grasp of political reality and he firmly reasserted the primacy of politics in the historical process as the essential motor of social change. | | | His History, translated throughout Europe and achieving sales in America second only to the Bible, immediately became the canon of historical orthodoxy, replacing previous histories so completely that it is now difficult to see past its long and apparently effortless triumph. |
