Book Synopsis The Mercery of London by : Anne F. Sutton
Download or read book The Mercery of London written by Anne F. Sutton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 598 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although mercers have long been recognised as one of the most influential trades in medieval London, this is the first book to offer a comprehensive and detailed analysis of the trade from the twelfth to the sixteenth century. The variety of mercery goods (linen, silk, worsted and small manufactured items including what is now called haberdashery) gave the mercers of London an edge over all competitors. The sources and production of all these commodities is traced throughout the period covered. It was as the major importers and distributors of linen in England that London mercers were able to take control of the Merchant Adventurers and the export of English cloth to the Low Countries. The development of the Adventurers' Company and its domination by London mercers is described from its first privileges of 1296 to after the fall of Antwerp. This book investigates the earliest itinerant mercers and the artisans who made and sold mercery goods (such as the silkwomen of London, so often mercers' wives), and their origins in counties like Norfolk, the source of linen and worsted. These diverse traders were united by the neighbourhood of the London Mercery on Cheapside and by their need for the privileges of the freedom of London. Extensive use of Netherlandish and French sources puts the London Mercery into the context of European Trade, and literary texts add a more personal image of the merchant and his preoccupation with his social status which rose from that of the despised pedlar to the advisor of princes. After a slow start, the Mercers' Company came to include some of the wealthiest and most powerful men of London and administer a wide range of charitable estates such as that of Richard Whittington. The story of how they survived the vicissitudes inflicted by the wars and religious changes of the sixteenth century concludes this fascinating and wide-ranging study.
Book Synopsis Rethinking Labor History by : Lenard R. Berlanstein
Download or read book Rethinking Labor History written by Lenard R. Berlanstein and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fundamentals guiding labor historians are under scrutiny today as never before. The field has attempted to uncover the socioeconomic conditions that produced labor militancy and class consciousness, with scholars focusing on proletarianization---the loss of control over the production process---as the key to class conflict. Currently, this entire approach is being questioned. In Rethinking Labor History, nine well-known French labor historians join the debate. Advocates of both revisionist Marxism and discourse analysis are represented, and examples of empirical research emerging from the theoretical disputes are included.

Book Synopsis Taste and Power by : Leora Auslander
Download or read book Taste and Power written by Leora Auslander and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-04-28 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Louis XIV, regency, rococo, neoclassical, empire, art nouveau, and historicist pastiche: furniture styles march across French history as regimes rise and fall. In this extraordinary social history, Leora Auslander explores the changing meaning of furniture from the mid-seventeenth to the early twentieth century, revealing how the aesthetics of everyday life were as integral to political events as to economic and social transformations. Enriched by Auslander's experience as a cabinetmaker, this work demonstrates how furniture served to represent and even generate its makers' and consumers' identities.
Book Synopsis Les 'autres' rois by : Torsten Hiltmann
Download or read book Les 'autres' rois written by Torsten Hiltmann and published by Oldenbourg Verlag. This book was released on 2010-07-07 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wird der Begriff des "Konigs" heute vorwiegend in einem engeren politischen Sinne verstanden und gebraucht, so war dies im ausgehenden Mittelalter anders. Denn neben den bekannten 'politischen' Konigen existierten hier noch zahlreiche 'andere' Konige. Sie standen Berufsgruppen vor, fuhrten Genossenschaften an oder wurden im Rahmen wiederkehrender Zeremonien und Brauche zu Festkonigen gekront. Spielleute und Herolde, Prostituierte und Handler hatten ebenso ihre Konige wie Bogenschutzen oder Adelsgesellschaften. Dabei ging es jedoch nicht um Rituale der Verkehrung oder gar um Akte der Auflehnung und Rebellion. Auch diese Konige besassen klare Funktionen und Privilegien, eine handfeste Machtstellung innerhalb ihrer Gruppe und wurden darin von den Autoritaten akzeptiert, ja teils erst eingesetzt. Der vorliegende Band halt erstmals eine systematische Zusammenschau dieses bisher unbeachtet gebliebenen Phanomens und fragt anhand ausgewahlter Beispiele nach der Funktion und der gesellschaftlichen Rolle dieser 'anderen' Konige in ihrem jeweiligen Umfeld. Damit legt er die Grundlagen fur ein neues, innovatives Forschungsfeld und bereichert die Auseinandersetzung mit dem Konigtum um eine neue, unerwartete Perspektive."

Book Synopsis France in the Enlightenment by : Daniel Roche
Download or read book France in the Enlightenment written by Daniel Roche and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 742 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A panorama of a whole civilization, a world on the verge of cataclysm, unfolds in this magisterial work by the foremost historian of eighteenth-century France. Since Tocqueville's account of the Old Regime, historians have struggled to understand the social, cultural, and political intricacies of this efflorescence of French society before the Revolution. France in the Enlightenment is a brilliant addition to this historical interest. France in the Enlightenment brings the Old Regime to life by showing how its institutions operated and how they were understood by the people who worked within them. Daniel Roche begins with a map of space and time, depicting France as a mosaic of overlapping geographical units, with people and goods traversing it to the rhythms of everyday life. He fills this frame with the patterns of rural life, urban culture, and government institutions. Here as never before we see the eighteenth-century French "culture of appearances": the organization of social life, the diffusion of ideas, the accoutrements of ordinary people in the folkways of ordinary living--their food and clothing, living quarters, reading material. Roche shows us the eighteenth-century France of the peasant, the merchant, the noble, the King, from Paris to the provinces, from the public space to the private home. By placing politics and material culture at the heart of historical change, Roche captures the complexity and depth of the Enlightenment. From the finest detail to the widest view, from the isolated event to the sweeping trend, his masterly book offers an unparalleled picture of a society in motion, flush with the transformation that will be its own demise.
