Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1874 edition. Excerpt: ...such a system as that adopted by Mr. de Moleyns is obvious. In a recent letter which I received from the excellent Vicar of Burrington, he informed me that for a long time previously not a single inhabitant of his parish had been an inmate of the district workhouse. There is at Burrington an admirable system of allotments. About thirty years ago some of the; cottagers were permitted to enclose pieces of common land on the top of some of the Mendip hills. These enlosures have since been used as "garden grounds." Each garden plot averages a quarter of an acre in extent, for which a merely nominal rent of is. 6d. per annum is all that is required by the Lord of the Manor. These "garden grounds," as they are called, are much prized by the labourers, who grow in them their little. crops of fruit and vegetables. A system almost identical with that pursued at Burrington was adopted by Canon Girdlestone during his residence at Halberton; for, notwithstanding the great demand made upon his time by his work of peasant migration--which will be found noticed at length in the succeeding chapter--the Canon did not allow the cause of Education in his parish to suffer. As at Burrington so at Halberton, the Vicar adopted the admirable plan of obtaining situations for the most deserving of the pupils in his schools; thus offering a powerful incentive to diligence and good behaviour, and giving the most practical encouragement to education. CHAPTER V. THE WORK OF CANON GIRDLESTONE. ANON-GIRDLESTONE may fairly be considered as the pioneer of the agricultural labourers' movement. He, in fact, commenced, in the north of Devon, as early as the year 1866, the system of peasant migration with which his name has been associated. It is probable that had it not been...

Download or read book The English Pig written by Robert Malcolmson and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The English Pig is an account of pigs and pig-keeping from the sixteenth century to modern times, concentrating on the domestic, cottage pig, rather than commercial farming. In Victorian England the pig was an integral part of village life: both visible and essential. Living in close proximity to its owners, fed on scraps and the subject of perennial interest, the pig when dead provided the means to repay social and monetary debts as well as excellent meat. While the words associated with the pig, such as 'hoggish', 'swine' and 'pigsty', and phrases like 'greedy as a pig', associate the pig with greed and dirt, this book shows the pig's virtues, intelligence and distinctive character. It is a portrait of one of the most recognisable but least known of farm animals, seen here also in many photographs and other representations. The pig has a modest place in literature from Fielding's pig-keeping Parson Trulliber to Hardy's Jude the Obscure and to Flora Thompson's Lark Rise to Candleford. In modern times, while vanishing from the sight of most people, it has been sentimentalised in children's stories and commercialised in advertisements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A landmark new history of the peasant experience, exploring a now neglected way of life that once encompassed most of humanity but is vanishing in our time. “What the skeleton is to anatomy, the peasant is to history, its essential hidden support.” For over the past century and a half, and still more rapidly in the last seventy years, the world has become increasingly urban, and the peasant way of life—the dominant way of life for humanity since agriculture began well over 6,000 years ago—is disappearing. In this new history of peasantry, social historian Patrick Joyce aims to tell the story of this lost world and its people, and how we can commemorate their way of life. In one sense, this is a global history, ambitious in scope, taking us from the urbanization of the early 19th century to the present day. But more specifically, Joyce’s focus is the demise of the European peasantry and of their rites, traditions, and beliefs. Alongside this he brings in stories of individuals as well as places, including his own family, and looks at how peasants and their ways of life have been memorialized in photographs, literature, and in museums. Joyce explores a people whose voice is vastly underrepresented in human history and is usually mediated through others. And now peasants are vanishing in one of the greatest historical transformations of our time. Written with the skill and authority of a great historian, Remembering Peasants is a landmark work, a richly complex and passionate history written with exquisite care. It is also deeply resonant, as Joyce shines a light on people whose knowledge of the land is being irretrievably lost during our critical time of climate crisis and the rise of industrial agriculture. Enlightening, timely, and vitally important, this book commemorates an extraordinary culture whose impact on history—and the future—remains profoundly relevant.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drinking has always meant much more than satisfying the thirst. Drinking can be a necessity, a comfort, an indulgence or a social activity. Liquid Pleasures is an engrossing study of the social history of drinks in Britain from the late seventeenth century to the present. From the first cup of tea at breakfast to mid-morning coffee, to an eveining beer and a 'night-cap', John Burnett discusses individual drinks and drinking patterns which have varied not least with personal taste but also with age, gender, region and class. He shows how different ages have viewed the same drink as either demon poison or medicine. John Burnett traces the history of what has been drunk in Britain from the 'hot beverage revolution' of the late seventeenth century - connecting drinks and related substances such as sugar to empire - right up to the 'cold drinks revolution' of the late twentieth century, examining the factors which have determined these major changes in our dietary habits.
