Remember, Remember
Remember, Remember: A Cultural History of Guy Fawkes Day | J. A. Sharpe
4 posts | 2 to read
Bonfire Night, observed every year to memorialize the narrowly foiled Gunpowder Plot, is one of England's most festive occasions. Why has the memory of this act of treason and terrorism persisted for 400 years? James Sharpe teases apart the tangled web of religion and politics that gave rise to the plot and wittily shows how celebration of that fateful night has changed over the centuries.

HAPPY GUY FAWKES NIGHT 🎆

Remember, remember the fifth of November
Gunpowder treason & plot
We see no reason
Why gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot
Guy Fawkes, guy, t'was his intent
To blow up king & parliament
Three score barrels were laid below
To prove old England's overthrow
By god's mercy he was catch'd
With a darkened lantern & burning match
So, holler boys, holler boys, Let the bells ring
Holler boys, holler boys, God save the king

LeeRHarry I miss Bonfire Night - they haven't done it here in Aus for years! 😊Enjoy! 6y
