Books
This fascinating book offers the first sustained investigation of the complex relationship between the middling sort and their domestic space in the tumultuous, rapidly changing culture of early modern England. Presented in an innovative and engaging narrative form that follows the pattern of a typical day from early morning through the middle of the night, 'A Day at Home in Early Modern England' examines the profound influence that the domestic material environment had on structuring and expressing modes of thought and behaviour of relatively ordinary people.
