The early eighteenth century saw a far-reaching financial revolution in England, whose impact on the literature of the period has hitherto been relatively unexplored. In this original study, Colin Nicholson reads familiar texts such as Gulliver's Travels, The Beggar's Opera and The Dunciad as 'capital satires', responding to the social and political effects of the installation of capitalist financial institutions in London. The founding of the Bank of England and the inauguration of the National Debt permanently altered the political economy of England: the South Sea Bubble disaster of 1721 educated a political generation into the money markets. While they invested in stocks and shares, Swift, Pope and Gay conducted a campaign against the civic effects of these new financial institutions. Conflict between these writers' inherited discourse of civic humanism and the transformations being undergone by their own society, is shown to have had a profound effect on a number of key literary texts.

Colin Nicholson, student, jack-of-all-subjects and master of only one—English—has nothing much going for him. His widowed mother spends more of her time auditioning for roles in plays and low-budget cable movies than providing decent guardianship. His one solace is the movies, and when a girl named Leanna steps out of the screen one day, claiming that a maniac is chasing her and she needs his help, Colin has no choice but to go along with her, especially when his best friend is blown away by the maniac called Nails. Leanna is from another futuristic Earth, one with interdimensional capability, and Nails and others are after that technology, as she’s the only one who knows the secret be...
James Pryde and William Nicholson first made their names during the 1890s as poster designers. Under the pseudonym J & W Beggarstaff, the two men collaborated on a series of revolutionary posters whose style was characterized by bold silhouettes, simplified forms and pure, flat colours. Their first work together was for a production of Hamlet in which their friend Edward Gordon Craig, took the title role, and it made them famous overnight. The Beggarstaffs' work was acclaimed by critics of the time and became sought after by collectors. By the time of the dissolution of the partnership their work had influenced many European and American designers and today they are rightly regarded as important pioneers of the modern pictorial advertisement.
