An innovative study of the politicisation of 'ordinary people' in western Germany during the first half of the nineteenth century. With chapters devoted to reading, singing, public space, carnival, violence and religion, James Brophy argues that popular culture played a critical role in linking ordinary Rhinelanders to the public sphere.
