Book Synopsis The Diary of Mary Hardy, 1773-1809 by : Mary Hardy
Download or read book The Diary of Mary Hardy, 1773-1809 written by Mary Hardy and published by . This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 25-year project to publish a little-known diarist throws new light on 18th-century country life and work. Until now only brief extracts had appeared. Through the eyes of Mary Hardy (1733-1809), the wife of a Norfolk farmer, maltster and brewer, we observe the development of the family enterprise. The Hardys and their workforce perform all the stages of production, from ploughing the land and sowing the seed to delivering the beer to the public houses. The toll on the men is immense. In her diary totalling half a million words she ranges over a wide canvas. These include family matters such as the position of women and the nurturing of children, running a household and the high turnover of maidservants, supplying public houses and the innkeepers' many problems, and the civilian response to the threat of invasion. Each page has editorial sidenotes designed to guide the reader through the text. As well as explaining any unusual words they amplify her often laconic entries. Each well-illustrated volume in the set has a detailed index. The volumes are also available singly, the individual synopses giving the scope of Mary Hardy's coverage.

A year after the death of her older brother, Prue Haywood's family is still shattered by grief. But everything changes when a stranger arrives at the farm. A new, incredible technology has been discovered in the city of Medlock, where a secretive guild of inventors have developed a way to capture spirits of the dead in animal-like machines, bringing them back to life. Prue knows that the "Ghost Guild" might hold the key to bringing her brother back, so she seizes the stranger's offer to join as an apprentice. But to find her brother, she needs to find a way to get the ghost machines to remember the people they used to be. Yet if Prue succeeds, all of society could come apart...

Book Synopsis Women, Work & Sexual Politics in Eighteenth-century England by : Bridget Hill
Download or read book Women, Work & Sexual Politics in Eighteenth-century England written by Bridget Hill and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1994 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this fundamental reassessment of women's experience of work in eighteenth-century England, Bridget Hill examines how and to what extent industrialization improved the overall position of women and the opportunities open to them. Focusing on the most important unit of production, the household, Dr Hill examines women's work, not only in "housework" but also in agriculture and manufacturing, and reveals what women lost as the household's independence as a unit of economic production was undermined. Considering the whole range of activities in which women were involved, the increasing sexual division of labour is charted and its implications highlighted. The final part of the book considers how the changing nature of women's work influenced courtship, marriage and relations between the sexes.

Download or read book In These Times written by Jenny Uglow and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2015-01-27 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A beautifully observed history of the British home front during the Napoleonic Wars by a celebrated historian We know the thrilling, terrible stories of the battles of the Napoleonic Wars—but what of those left behind? The people on a Norfolk farm, in a Yorkshire mill, a Welsh iron foundry, an Irish village, a London bank, a Scottish mountain? The aristocrats and paupers, old and young, butchers and bakers and candlestick makers—how did the war touch their lives? Jenny Uglow, the prizewinning author of The Lunar Men and Nature's Engraver, follows the gripping back-and-forth of the first global war but turns the news upside down, seeing how it reached the people. Illustrated by the satires of Gillray and Rowlandson and the paintings of Turner and Constable, and combining the familiar voices of Austen, Wordsworth, Scott, and Byron with others lost in the crowd, In These Times delves into the archives to tell the moving story of how people lived and loved and sang and wrote, struggling through hard times and opening new horizons that would change their country for a century.

Book Synopsis The Decline of Life by : Susannah R. Ottaway
Download or read book The Decline of Life written by Susannah R. Ottaway and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-02-02 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Decline of Life is an ambitious and absorbing study of old age in eighteenth-century England. Drawing on a wealth of sources - literature, correspondence, poor house and workhouse documents and diaries - Susannah Ottaway considers a wide range of experiences and expectations of age in the period, and demonstrates that the central concern of ageing individuals was to continue to live as independently as possible into their last days. Ageing men and women stayed closely connected to their families and communities, in relationships characterised by mutual support and reciprocal obligations. Despite these aspects of continuity, however, older individuals' ability to maintain their autonomy, and the nature of the support available to them once they did fall into necessity declined significantly in the last decades of the century. As a result, old age was increasingly marginalised. Historical demographers, historical gerontologists, sociologists, social historians and women's historians will find this book essential reading.
Book Synopsis The Cambridge Companion to Thomas Hardy by : Dale Kramer
Download or read book The Cambridge Companion to Thomas Hardy written by Dale Kramer and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1999-06-24 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Hardy's fiction has had a remarkably strong appeal for general readers for decades, and his poetry has been acclaimed as among the most influential of the twentieth century. His work still creates passionate advocacy and opposition. The Cambridge Companion to Thomas Hardy is an essential introduction to this most enigmatic of writers. These commissioned essays from an international team of contributors comprises a general overview of all Hardy' s work and specific demonstrations of Hardy's ideas and literary skills. Individual essays explore Hardy's biography, aesthetics, his famous attachment to Wessex, and the impact on his work of developments in science, religion and philosophy in the late nineteenth century. Hardy's writing is also analysed against developments in contemporary critical theory and issues such as sexuality and gender. The volume also contains a detailed chronology of Hardy's life and publications, and a guide to further reading.

Download or read book A Faithful Heart written by Emmala Reed and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emmala Reed's journals from 1865 and 1866 present a detailed account of life in western South Carolina as war turned to reconstruction. Reed's postwar writings are particularly important given their rarity - many Civil War diarists stopped writing at war's end. Also unlike many diarists of the period, Reed lived in a small town rather than on a plantation or in an urban center.
