Charles Darwin 1809-1882
An English naturalist who was famous for his famous theory of "natural selection". As a young scientist he set sail on the voyage of the Beagle in 1831 and came back with observations on the varieties of fossils and living animals which made him question the Bible's story of creation. His findings were published in "The Origin of Species" in 1859. This theory caused a real stir and was sold out straight away.

Children and crime: Many destitute children lived by stealing and they were seen as threats to society. Something had to be done about them to preserve law and order.
• The housing shortage: Workers wanted to live nearby their working places because it was time-saving. As a result of these demands and overcrowded conditions, the housing became scarce and expensive; therefore, so many people preferred slum-housing.
• Prostitution:Beginning in the late 1840s, major
Queen Victoria ( 1837-1901)
An age of transition Thanks to industry and trade, England became the wealthiest nation
“The sun never sets on England”
• Britain was unchallenged military power • Britain dominated Global trade and expanded as a colonial empire in India, Australia, Africa and Brazil
• Destitution: Many cases of death caused by starvation and destitution were reported. In 1850, an inquest was held on a 38 year old woman whose body was reported as being little more than a skeleton, and her child as a „skeleton infant‟. • Homeless children: There were children living with their families in these desperate situations but there were also numerous, homeless children living on the streets of London.
• Growth of the cities: Due to the industrialisation, people were flocking into cities to search for better lives. • The search for employment: Both unskilled and skilled people demanded work, so the wages were low. Life conditions were too hard. • Child Labour: Children had to work long hours and under difficult conditions to help the family budget.
Kellow Chesney made a description of slum-housing in his book “The Victorian Underworld” : „Hideous slums, some of them acres wide, some no more than crannies of obscure misery, make up a substantial part of the, metropolis … In big, once handsome houses, thirty or more people of all ages may inhabit a single room,‟
Henry Mayhew argued that: „since crime was not caused by illiteracy, it cannot be cured education … the only certain effects being the emergence of a more skilful and sophisticated race of criminals‟
• Society‟s attitude towards the poor: This is
clearly demonstrated in a hymn published in 1848 Cecil Frances Alexander: “The rich man in his castle, The poor man at his gate, God made them, high and lowly, And order’d their estate”
• Factories were foun important and profitable. • Railways, canals and steamships provided Britain with the transportation between Britain and its colonies. • Urbanization, poverty and child labour emerged.
