"A tribute to the work of Keith Wrightson, Remaking English Society re-examines the
relationship between enduring structures and social change in early modern England.
Collectively, the essays in the volume reconstruct the fissures and connections that
developed both within and between social groups during the sixteenth, seventeenth
and eighteenth centuries. Focusing on the experience of rapid economic and demographic
growth and on related processes of cultural diversification, the contributors address
fundamental questions about the character of English society during a period of decisive
change. Prefaced by a substantial introduction which traces the evolution of early
modern social history over the last fifty years, these essays (each of them written
by a leading authority) not only offer state-of-the-art assessments of the historiography
but also represent the latest research on a variety of topics that have been at the
heart of the development of 'the new social history' and its cultural turn: gender
relations and sexuality; governance and litigation; class and deference; labouring
relations, neighbourliness and reciprocity; and social status and consumption."--Publisher's
