For the Wikipedia system function, see Wikipedia Purge Other uses In history , religion , and political science , a purge is the removal of people who are considered undesirable by those in power from a government , from another organization, or from society as a whole. Purges can be peaceful or violent many will end with the imprisonment or exile of those purged, but in some cases they will simply be removed from office. Restoring people who have been purged is known as political rehabilitation rehabilitation . Historical use of the term The earliest use of the term itself was the English Civil War s Pride s Purge . In 1648, the moderate members of the English Long Parliament were purged by the army. Parliament would suffer subsequent purges under the Commonwealth including the purge of the entire House of Lords . Counter revolutionaries such as royalists were purged as well as more radical revolutionaries such as the Levellers . After the English Restoration Restoration , obstinate republicans were purged while some fled to New England . The Shanghai massacre of 1927 and the Night of the Long Knives of 1934, in which the leader of a political party turned against and liquidated a particular section or group within the party, are commonly called purges while mass expulsions on grounds of ethnic unreliability, such as the Crimean Tatars and the Japanese American internment are not. The term purge is often associated with the Stalinism Stalinist and Maoism Maoist regimes.

Wit and Mirth Or Pills to Purge Melancholy is the title of a large collection of songs by Thomas d Urfey , published between 1698 and 1720, which in its final, six volume edition held over 1,000 songs and poems. The collection started as a single book compiled and published by Henry Playford who had succeeded his father John Playford as the leading music publisher of the period. Over the next two decades, Pills went through various editions and expanded into five volumes in 1719 Thomas D Urfey reordered and added to the work to produce a new edition also in 5 volumes with the title Songs Compleat, Pleasant and Divertive , published by Jacob Tonson . Volumes I and II now consisted entirely of songs words, not tunes by D Urfey. The edition sold out quickly and in the second printing D Urfey reverted to the Pills title. He added Volume 6 in 1720. The title itself may derive from a 1599 pamphlet A Pil to Purge Melancholie. ref Suttcliffe, Chris. The Canon of Robert Armin s Work An Addition.
