Book Synopsis Rural Life in Victorian Aberdeenshire by : William Alexander
Download or read book Rural Life in Victorian Aberdeenshire written by William Alexander and published by Mercat Press Books. This book was released on 1992 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The published work of William Alexander is the surest contemporary guide to the social history of the countryside of North-East Scotland in the nineteenth century. In this selection of his writing, which includes essays from the Aberdeenshire Free Press and chapters from his masterpiece Johnny Gibb of Gushetneuk, Ian Carter shows how Alexander's writing reflected the lives that real people enjoyed and endured in the countryside of Victorian Scotland and thus contributed to vital debates about the proper shape of that countryside. Taken as a whole, Alexander's writing is a matchless account of the aspirations of a peasantry resisting full integration into capitalist agriculture. It runs directly counter to the policies that we have taken for granted for two generations, and this selection may encourage North-East folk - and other Scots - to challenge these assumptions. It will certainly help them reclaim some of their history.
Book Synopsis When the Lord Walked the Land by : Kenneth S. Jeffrey
Download or read book When the Lord Walked the Land written by Kenneth S. Jeffrey and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2007-03-02 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previous studies of revival have tended to approach these remarkable moments in history from either a strictly local or a sweeping national perspective. In so doing they have dealt with either the detailed circumstances of a particular situation or the broader course of events. These approaches, however, have given the incorrect impression that religious awakenings are uniform movements. As a result, revivals have been misunderstood as homogeneous campaigns. This is the first study of the 1859 revival from a regional level in a comprehensive manner. It examines this movement, arguably the most significant and far-reaching awakening in modern times, as it appeared in the city of Aberdeen, the rural hinterland of northeast Scotland, and among the fishing villages and towns that stretch along the Moray Firth. It reveals how, far from being unvarying, the 1859 revival was richly diverse. It uncovers the important influence that local contexts brought to bear upon the timing and manifestation of this awakening. Above all, it has established the heterogeneous nature of simultaneous revival movements that appeared in the same vicinity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together new research whilst re-evaluating older assumptions about the immediate and continuing impact of World War I on Ireland.
