dc.description.abstract | In the reformation of manners campaign the Clapham sect attempted to apply universal moral principles to the different classes of British society in different ways. Bifurcated methods of engagement with the upper and lower classes rooted in both strategic necessity and theology invited charges of hypocrisy and created a deep-rooted legacies for the treatment of the poor in social reform movements in British society. This impact proved both deep rooted and durable, sparking a change in perspective that helped mark the transition from the Hanoverian to the Victorian age.
