Henry Peter Brougham, 1st Baron Brougham

and 19 September 1778 – 7 May 1868)

was a British statesman who became Lord High Chancellor and played a prominent role in passing

the 1832 Reform Act and

1833 Slavery Abolition Act. Born

in Edinburgh, Brougham helped found the Edinburgh

Review in 1802 before moving to London, where he qualified

as a barrister in 1808. Elected to the House of

Commons in 1810 as a Whig, he

was Member of Parliament for

a number of constituencies until becoming a peer in 1834. Brougham won popular

renown for helping defeat the 1820 Pains and Penalties

Bill, an attempt by the widely disliked George IV to

annul his marriage to Caroline of Brunswick. He

became an advocate of liberal causes including abolition of the slave trade, free trade and parliamentary reform. Appointed Lord

Chancellor in 1830, he made a number of reforms intended to speed up legal

cases and established the Central Criminal Court. He never regained government office

after 1834 and although he played an active role in the House of Lords, he often did so in opposition to his former

colleagues. Education was another area of interest. He helped establish

the Society for

the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge and University College London,

as well as holding a number of academic posts, including Rector,

University of Edinburgh. In later years he spent much of his time in

the French city of Cannes, making it a popular resort for the

British upper-classes; he died there in 1868.
