Neuware -In eighteenth-century Britain, the study of history was understood first and foremost as the study of how states developed-and lost-their political coherence. But at the same time, writers, preoccupied by contemporary social change, were coming to believe that economic progress was largely dependent on an ever-increasing variety of trades and occupations. Could this highly differentiated society still be understood as 'unified', and if so, by whom Dr Barrell argues that these questions were of central importance not only to historians and social philosophers, but also to poets, novelists, essayists, and even writers of grammar and dictionaries.First published in 1983, English Literature in History examines how, in response to these questions, an economic theory of society was developed out of an earlier political view of society as an area of conflicting interests which could be regulated by disinterested statesmen and gentlemen.
