'An end to good manners': The Royal College of Physicians and the English Civil War

Until 15 March 2012

In the 17th century the College of Physicians was led by a small group of powerful men who held widely differing religious and political opinions.

During the English Civil War, fellows demonstrated strong allegiance to either the Royalists or Parliamentarians. Others proved adept at navigating their way through the conflict, pragmatically switching sides, and the College emerged from the conflict strengthened.

This exhibition uses rarely seen material from the RCP's historical collections to tell the story of the College and its physicians during this tumultuous period. Open Monday to Friday, 9am–5pm. Free entry.

Displaying over 60 iconic examples, this exhibition at The People's History Museum in Manchester, will explore the development of the poster and examine one of the key aspects of democracy: how parties speak to the people and crucially, how this communication has changed.

The exhibition will showcase the museum’s unique poster collection which is the largest in the UK, including examples from all the major political parties.
