September 2018
For the inaugural Gordon Brown Memorial Lecture at the Lit & Phil, Dr. Bill Lancaster explored the different sides of Joseph Cowen including his many paradoxes: 
  • a republican who was a strong advocate of empire and imperialism; 
  • a capitalist who spent his life advocating working-class interests; 
  • and a liberal politician who was a founding member of what soon became Britain’s first Marxist political party.
