Kingsley, Charles (1819–75). Vicar of Eversley (Hants), social reformer, novelist, and ‘muscular Christian’. Influenced by F. D.
Maurice and Thomas
Carlyle, Kingsley became a leading spirit in the
Christian socialist movement of 1848–54, and under the pseudonym ‘Parson Lot’ contributed to
Politics for the People (1848) and
The Christian Socialist (1850–1). His novels
Yeast (1848) and
Alton Locke (1850) were sympathetic middle‐class descriptions of working‐class life.
