EDITORS COMMENTS
This 1851 cartoon print titled "CARTOON: PUSEYISM" by Master Punch humorously captures the religious and political climate of the time. The image depicts a scene where a young child, referred to as "my little dear" asks an English bishop to differentiate between Popery and Puseyism. The bishop's response, delivered with a hint of sarcasm, is simply, "Whichever you like". The cartoon satirizes the ambiguity surrounding these two religious movements prevalent in Oxford during that era. Puseyism refers to the teachings and practices associated with Edward Bouverie Pusey, an influential figure at Oxford University who sought to revive Catholic traditions within Anglicanism. On the other hand, Popery represents Roman Catholicism. The artist cleverly uses this interaction between a child and a bishop to highlight how even those in positions of authority may not provide clear answers or guidance on complex matters such as religious doctrine. It also reflects broader societal concerns about the influence of these ideologies on British society. With its detailed depiction of men wearing traditional attire outside an ornate church building, this cartoon offers valuable insights into both historical events and social attitudes towards religion during mid-19th century England.
