This study compares the making and remaking of the political
identities of the miners' movements in Britain and Germany. Taking
the south Wales and Ruhr coalfields as case studies, it focuses on
the public discourse of the trade unions and political parties as
it was disseminated in local newspapers, trade union publications,
pamphlets and election leaflets. It reveals how the miners'
movements used ideas such as class, religion, the 'people' or Volk,
socialization and nationalization to construct organizational
identities during the turbulent period between 1890 and 1926. These
concepts were crucial not only in the formation and self-identity
of the miners' trade unions, but also in the way they interacted
with employers and the state. They adapted and changed over time as
the miners' movements reacted to war, economic depression and
increasing industrial conflict. The book contends that these
identities were not simply the result of structural factors, but
were formed at the juncture where cultural, political and
sociological forces intersect. Examining this intersection through
discourse analysis and the concept of the 'lifeworld', the book
brings together the social world of the miners and the realm of
organized politics to advance historical understanding of two of
the most important elements in the most powerful labour movements
in Europe. -- .

good. Sayest thou so ? Then it is done. Give it really and freely,
and he will take, and make it better at its worst, than all the
gold, and frankincense, and myrrh of all those rich countries where
they abound, and will purify, rectify, and make it quite another

return will give thee himself, and be thine for ever. CHAPTER III.
Although the enemies of Jesus Christ, and for a time, even his
friends and followers, mistook the nature of his kingdom, yet he is
a king. This being questioned, he himself avowed it before the
Roman judge; and even in his low estate on earth, yet were there
intermixed signs and characters of royalty. To instance here no
more, the former chapter hath the history of one of them, and this
of another. In that was the homage done to him a little after his
entering into the world by birth In this, we have his harbinger
preparing his way a little before his coming forth into the world,
to manifest himself in his words and works. This chapter, you see,
contains the history of John Baptist ?1st. the nature of his
office; 2dly. the exercise of his office; and that both generally
to the multitude of the Jews that resorted to his baptism, and
particularly, to some of more eminent note amongst them, the
Pharisees and Sadducees, and singularly on the person of Jesus
Christ. Ver. 1. In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in
the wilderness of Judea.] This relates not to the history that goes
before, but to that which follows to be recorded, as the usual
style of the Hebrew bears. It is clear t...
