Book Synopsis Seeing England by : Charles Lancaster
Download or read book Seeing England written by Charles Lancaster and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2011-11-08 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the seventeeth century antiquarianism was a well-respected profession and antiquarian works were in demand, particularly amongst the gentry, we were especially interested in establishing lineage and the descent of land tenure. Although intended primarily as a source of information about who owned what and where, they often contained fascinating descriptions of the English landscape. Charles Lancaster has examined the town and county surveys of this period and selected the most interesting examples to illustrate the variety and richness of these descriptions. Organised by region, he has provided detailed introductions to each excerpt. Including such writers as John Stow, William Dugdale, Elias Ashmole, Daniel Defoe, Gilbert White and Celie Fiennes, this is a book that will appeal to anyone with an interest in both national and local history and to lovers of English scenery.

Book Synopsis Crowds and Popular Politics in Early Modern England by : John Walter
Download or read book Crowds and Popular Politics in Early Modern England written by John Walter and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2013-07-19 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early modern England was marked by profound changes in economy, society, politics and religion. It is widely believed that the poverty and discontent which these changes often caused resulted in major rebellion and frequent ‘riots’. Whereas the politics of the people have often been described as a ‘many-headed monster’; spasmodic and violent, and the only means by which the people could gain expression in a highly hierarchical society and a state that denied them a political voice, the essays in this collection argue for the inherently political nature of popular protest through a series of studies of acts of collective protest, up to and including the English Revolution. The work of John Walter has played a central role in defining current understanding of the field and has been widely read and cited by those working on the politics of subaltern groups. This collection of essays offers a radical re-evaluation of the nature of crowds and protests during the period, and it will make fascinating reading for historians of the period.
Book Synopsis Varieties of History and Their Porous Frontiers by : Roger C. Richardson
Download or read book Varieties of History and Their Porous Frontiers written by Roger C. Richardson and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2021-06-28 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Properly understood, social history, local history and historiography are closely interconnected and benefit from the dialectical relationships which help bind them together. The actual topics and individual chapters gathered together in this book are chronologically wide-ranging, but are demonstrably linked by methodological common denominators and common threads in their northern and southern settings. All the essays are squarely based on new research and all reach outwards, as well as inwards. All are problem solving and all display a vigorous methodology at work. Some re-visit well-known historians and subjects such as W.G. Hoskins and Joan Thirsk and the Oxford English Dictionary. Others, like the essays on John Milner and G.H. Tupling make a convincing case for resurrecting the neglected or forgotten.
Book Synopsis A Military History of the English Civil War by : Malcolm Wanklyn
Download or read book A Military History of the English Civil War written by Malcolm Wanklyn and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-07-10 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Military History of the English Civil War examines how the civil war was won, who fought for whom, and why it ended. With a straightforward style and clear chronology that enables readers to make their own judgements and pursue their own interests further, this original history provides a thorough critique of the reasons that have been cited for Parliament's victory and the King's defeat in 1645/46. It discusses the strategic options of the Parliamentary and Royalist commanders and councils of war and analyses the decisions they made, arguing that the King’s faulty command structure was more responsible for his defeat than Sir Thomas Fairfax's strategic flair. It also argues that the way that resources were used, rather than the resources themselves, explain why the war ended when it did.

Book Synopsis Voice of the Past by : Paul Thompson
Download or read book Voice of the Past written by Paul Thompson and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2000-03-16 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this revised edition of Paul Thompson's successful book, he traces oral history through its own past and weighs up the recent achievements of this international movement. He challenges myths of historical scholarship and looks at the use of oral sources by the historian. The author offers advice on designing a project; discusses reliability of oral evidence; considers the context of the development of historical writing including it's social function.; and looks at memory, the self and the use of drama and therapy. This new edition has been substantially revised and updated and includes an expanded discussion of narrative approaches and new technology used in the recording of information. Reviews from the second edition of Voice of the Past: Oral History 'Paul Thompson is a passionate and convincing crusader in the cause of oral history' The Times Educational Supplement 'It must be rare in modern academic life to replace your own unrivalled book after 10 years with an even better one, but he has done so. His new material on memory and the self, and on drama as therapy, should be read by literary critics in their infancy.' The Independent '...the first book to combine a theory of oral history, the technical processes involved, and a road map of where oral evidence fits into the landscape of western historiography.' American Historical Review
Book Synopsis Polluting the Sacred by : D. E. Thiery
Download or read book Polluting the Sacred written by D. E. Thiery and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The influence of Christianity on 'the history of violence' is often exemplified by famous instances of interfaith conflict, like 'The Crusades'. However, as religions develop, they usually marginalize violence against fellow believers long before they ever, if at all, question violence against 'others'. Through an investigation of spiritual and legal sources, this book details how Christian teachings about charity, sin and purity problematized late medieval parishioners' use of violence, and how parishioners actually tried to reconcile these teachings with cultural norms that often honored violent conduct. By illuminating the impact of lessons concerning the sinfulness of violence and piety of self-restraint, this book provides a fresh perspective on the important role of religion in the 'civilizing process' of European history.
