Description
'Wisdom and Wind-Bag', 1866. The master of rhetoric, Thomas Carlyle, is shown commenting on a speech being given to the masses by John Bright. Bright is seen to be rousing his audience by anger by telling them how the House of Commons hates any of the measures it is forced to discuss that might actually improve the lives of the ordinary working-class man. The implication is that he is telling his audience lies. From Punch, or the London Charivari, April 14, 1866. (Photo by The Cartoon Collector/Print Collector/Getty Images)
