A charging device includes a charging member including an endless cylindrical flexible base member and conductive contactors provided along an outer peripheral surface of the base member, the charging member being attracted to a charged member in a pressure applied state by electrostatic attraction force responsive to a charging voltage applied to the charging member or by the electrostatic attraction force and self-weight of the charging member, the charging member charging the charged member; and a voltage applying member that applies the charging voltage to the charging member. |
