	Barnaby Rudge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Barnaby Rudge: A Tale of the Riots of 'Eighty is a historical novel by the author Charles Dickens.
		Barnaby Rudge (along with The Old Curiosity Shop) was one of two novels which Dickens published in his short-lived weekly serial Master Humphrey's Clock, which lasted from 1840 to 1841, when Barnaby Rudge was published.
		Another tactic for subtly drawing attention to the way the story is unfolding is Grip the raven and his seemingly nonsensical comments, which often reveal greater truths to the reader than to the characters.

		Barnaby Rudge, independently of its internal and detailed attractions, has a special interest for the student as a whole book.
		It is certain that the historical events and personages in Barnaby Rudge are not the main source or cause of the interest, though they are, with a skill which the author did not often show elsewhere, constantly made the occasion of it.
		Barnaby is, of course, Smike endowed with some more heroic qualities; and Hugh stands to Barnaby, with a melodramatic addition, very much as Barnaby does to Smike.

	Full text and plot summary of Barnaby Rudge by Charles Dickens
		Barnaby Rudge was part of a proposed series by Dickens originating in 1840 known as Master Humphrey’s Clock.
		We learn later who the murderer of Reuben was and of the half-wit Barnaby Rudge who is later to be hanged but gains reprieve despite his part in the riots.
		The riots themselves form the focal point for the novel and are its main concern, although as ever in Dickens there is a large cast of interesting characters: notably the hangman Dennis and the coquettish Dolly Varden.

		Barnaby Rudge is probably one of the lesser known novels of Dickens.
		Barnaby Rudge in terms of quality I feel is however on a par with another early book of his - the popular 'The Pickwick Papers' which is a good read.
		Barnaby himself is a mentally-handicapped young man, and it is heartbreaking to see him allowing himself to be adopted by the cause in the belief that he will make his mother proud of him.

	Barnaby Rudge by Charles Dickens: A searchable online version at The Literature Network
		Barnaby Rudge was written by Dickens in the spring and first flowing tide of his popularity; it came immediately after The Old Curiosity Shop, and only a short time after Pickwick.
		Barnaby Rudge marks this epoch because it marks the fact that he is still confused about what kind of person he is going to be.
		This is a helpful piece of writing, I have not finished Barnaby Rudge and I would have liked to have a summary of the book before reading to understand this writing.

		'Barnaby,' said the locksmith, after a hasty but careful inspection, 'this man is not dead, but he has a wound in his side, and is in a fainting-fit.' 'I know him, I know him!' cried Barnaby, clapping his hands.
		I took him to Mrs Rudge's; and she no sooner saw him than the truth came out.' 'Miss Emma, father--If this news should reach her, enlarged upon as it is sure to be, she will go distracted.' 'Why, lookye there again, how a man suffers for being good- natured,' said the locksmith.
		Barnaby is not in his quietest humour to-night, and at such times talking never does him good.' They both glanced at the subject of this remark, who had taken a seat on the other side of the fire, and, smiling vacantly, was making puzzles on his fingers with a skein of string.

		This was not only done in token of their presence, but as a signal to those on whom the task devolved, that it was time to take possession of the lobbies of both Houses, and of the various avenues of approach, and of the gallery stairs.
		Their followers pressing on behind, they were borne as on a great wave to the very doors of the gallery, whence it was impossible to retreat, even if they had been so inclined, by reason of the throng which choked up the passages.
		Somebody had thrust into Barnaby’s hands when he came out into the street, his precious flag; which, being now rolled up and tied round the pole, looked like a giant quarter-staff as he grasped it firmly and stood upon his guard.

	"From Barnaby Rudge to Martin Chuzzlewit: Dickens's Disillusionment with the United States" by Nicholas Clark
		Barnaby Rudge is the work Dickens completed immediately prior to his departure and it is concerned quite substantially with an England that is disruptive; at whose core lies a society that in spite of it's intolerance of oppression indulges in the excesses of mob behaviour.
		Barnaby Rudge focuses on this violent past, concentrating as much on the faults of the supposed victims of society as upon the irresponsibility of society's leaders.
		Dickens emphasises this by drawing a parallel between the actions of the irresponsible mob and the lack of responsibility of fathers to their sons, for instance Mr Rudge's neglect of Barnaby or John Willet's obstinate attitude to Joe.

	Barnaby Rudge : A Tale Of The Riots Of 'Eighty
		One of Dickens's most socially conscious novels, BARNABY RUDGE dramatizes the conflict between apprentice and master that resulted in violence in both public and private.
		Set in 1780 during the Gordon "No Popery" riots, the plot involves a murder that occurred 20 years earlier, as well as the results of the anti-Catholic mob violence.
		One of Dickens's two historical novels, BARNABY RUDGE includes an vividly drawn cast of characters: Dolly Varden, one of his most appealing heroines; Geoffrey Haredale, staunch Catholic and brother of the murdered man; the unctuous servant Miss Miggs; Joe Willet the bumptious pub owner; and Dennis, the loathsome and cowardly hangman.
