Book Synopsis English Houses 1300-1800 by : Matthew H. Johnson
Download or read book English Houses 1300-1800 written by Matthew H. Johnson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-11 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Houses are more than a shelter from the elements: they also offer an unparalleled insight into the beliefs, ideas and experiences of the people who built and lived in them. In this engaging book, Matthew Johnson looks at the traditional houses that still exist throughout the English countryside and examines the lives of the ordinary people who once occupied them. His wide-ranging narrative takes in the medieval hall and the community it framed; the rebuilding and 'improvement'of houses in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries; and the rise of the Georgian Order in both architecture and eighteenth century culture. This passionate book is animated by the conviction that old houses are much more than just pretty tableaux of an idyllic, unchanging rural England. Vernacular houses are compared to their larger, 'polite' counterparts, and English houses are placed in the wider context of the British Isles and the Atlantic world beyond. The result is a dynamic, compelling account of the development of houses in the English countryside and through this, a portrait of changing patterns of social life from medieval to modern times. Richly illustrated throughout with photographs and drawings, this book will be of interest to anyone who wants to understand the significance of our built heritage and the historic landscape.

Book Synopsis A Pleasing Prospect by : Shani D'Cruze
Download or read book A Pleasing Prospect written by Shani D'Cruze and published by Univ of Hertfordshire Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on extensive primary-source research, this historical account considers the changing identity of 18th-century Colchester from the perspective of its "middling sort"--a section of society often attached to cultures of politeness and to the practices of consumption and production that helped shape economic change. Painstakingly reconstructing 18th-century social networks along lines of family, kinship, gender, spatiality, religion, and politics, this study examines the relationships between individual and family biographies while reflecting on provincial urban society and culture. The guide explores how Colchester capitalized on growth in agriculturally based industries--such as brewing, milling, and malting--and its role as an east-coast port and its participating in the urban renaissance and commodification of polite culture.
