The Making of the English Middle Class: Business, Society and Family Life in London, 1660-1730 - Rilegato
Sinossi
This is the first major study of a neglected yet extremely significant subject: the London middle classes in the period between 1660 and 1730, a period in which they created a society and economy that can be seen with hindsight to have ushered in the modern world. Using a wealth of material from contemporary sourcesincluding wills, business papers, inventories, marriage contracts, divorce hearings, and the writings of Daniel Defoe and Samuel PepysPeter Earle presents a fully rounded picture of the "middling sort of people," getting to the hearts of their lives as men and women struggling for success in the biggest, richest, and most middle-class city in contemporary Europe.
He examines in fascinating and convincing detail the business life of Londoners, from apprenticeship through the problems and potential rewards of different occupational groups, going on to look at middle-class family, social, political and material lifefrom relationships with spouses, children, servants, and neighbors, to food and clothes and furniture, to sickness, death, and burial.
Stimulating, scholarly, and constantly illuminating, this book is an important and impressive contribution to English social history.
