| 520 | |a This article explores the eugenic ideas of Ernest William Barnes (1874-1953), the Bishop of Birmingham. E.W. Barnes was a key proponent of sterilisation and euthanasia in post-war Britain, yet is a figure that scholarship on British eugenics has largely overlooked. He gave several eugenic-themed lectures after 1945 that gained significant newspaper coverage in the Times and the Manchester Guardian. The debate that ensued can serve as a microcosm for wider philosophical and ethical debates occurring in this period. Focusing particularly on the interlinking roles played by eugenics and religion in the inter- and post-war periods, this article identifies Barnes within this ever-evolving ideological climate as both a religious leader and campaigner for the perceived declining cause of eugenics. | ||
