Barnaby, the title character, is a simple man, childlike in his mind, innocent and naive, yet becomes famous as a rallying point for misguided revolutionists.
Barnaby is flitting about between all the major characters.

 Barnaby Rudge - Chapter 47 - Charles Dickens - Read Print
On one of these occasions, when the gentleman appeared disposed to exercise his horsewhip, the widow ventured to inform him in a low voice and with tears in her eyes, that her son was of weak mind.
But it was plain from what he had said, and from his returning to the point more than once that day, and on the next, that the blind man’s visit, and indeed his words, had taken strong possession of his mind.
In short, Barnaby being an idiot, and Grip a creature of mere brute instinct, it would be very hard to say what this gentleman was.

 "From Barnaby Rudge to Martin Chuzzlewit: Dickens's Disillusionment with the United States" by Nicholas Clark
Dickens believed that his own country's violent history, a subject on which he wrote in Master Humphrey's Clock, was to be seen in contrast with a utopia of American liberty that he hoped to witness first hand.
The author should have, in Mrs Trollope's words, expected a land not of "universal good nature" but one of "universal degradation." Dickens the idealist refused to believe that a liberated society could duplicate the sort of evil manifest in Barnaby Rudge.
Secondly I shall examine Dickens's image of America, who he believed to have profited by the example of violence portayed in his Tale of the Riots.

Those individuals include Emma, a Catholic, and Edward, a Protestant, whose forbidden love weaves through the heart of the story; and the simpleminded Barnaby, one of the riot leaders, whose fate is tied to a mysterious murder and whose beloved pet raven, Grip, embodies the mystical power of innocence.
The story encompasses both the rarified aristocratic world and the volatile streets and nightmarish underbelly of London, which Dickens characteristically portrays in vivid, pulsating detail.
One of the lesser-known novels, Barnaby Rudge is nonetheless among the most brilliant–and most terrifying–in Dickens’s oeuvre.

 Barnaby Rudge by Charles Dickens
Some of us came to this book as Dickens fans (Eliane and Nicki in particular), others as Dickens virgins (Sam) so our reactions were different.
In his handling of the three riot leaders, one of them Barnaby Rudge (mentally blighted by a crime committed at his birth), and in his depiction of an infuriated mob storming through the streets of London to burn down Newgate prison, Dickens is at his most brilliant and terrifying.
When the storm breaks and Lond George Gordon embarks on this crazed ride into London, the action explodes into violence and mayhem.

 Meep's Book Reviews: Barnaby Rudge
Meet the author who far surpasses him in making flesh creep and cringe, in this book more than most.
In Barnaby Rudge, Dickens portrays the Gordon Riots, a violent anti-Catholic outburst in London in 1780, supposedly started by the opposition by Lord Gordon to some acts in Parliament which would've relieved some of the burdens of Catholic citizens: the right to directly inherit property and the right to educate their children in England.
However, if you enjoy this kind of disaster, by all means, read Barnaby Rudge (or might I suggest Hard Times, which has some pretty horrific deaths).
