Description: | This recording of the Socialist rallying song "No Master, High or Low" was distributed by the "New Leader" newspaper. The "New Leader" was associated with the Independent Labour Party, a grouping on the left of the main party. The song was part of the work "Chants for Socialists" (1885) written by William Morris (1834-1896), an artist and designer active in the pre-Raphaelite and Arts and Crafts movements. The lyrics of the song express the radical Socialism of Morris, who was a member first of the Social Democratic Foundation and then of the breakaway Socialist League. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Bishopsgate Institute | Rights holder: | Bishopsgate Institute | Subjects: | Power and Politics | Temporal: | c1925 | Source: | Bishopsgate Institute | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
