Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For 150 years, from the beginning of the eighteenth century, East Sussex wasin the forefront of smuggling due to its pivotal position between the merchantsuppliers of Northern France and London customers eager for untaxed luxuriessuch as brandy, tea and tobacco.The men landing contraband on Sussex beaches had two initial aims. The firstto avoid detection, the second to move the merchandise swiftly inland to halfway hiding places at farms, churches and pubs. Secrecy during these operationswas facilitated by the threat of violence towards would be informers andjudicious bribing of legal authorities encouraging them to turn a blind eye.In many cases the local inn became the smugglers¿ centre of operations whereplots were hatched, arrangements agreed and runs commissioned. The smugglers¿pub served as a meeting place, recruitment centre, distribution depot andvalued customer. This was nowhere more so than in the incomparable smugglingtown of Rye, riddled with linking tunnels and secret storage places.Terry Townsend, who has written extensively on this subject, has identified asignificant number of authentic Smugglers¿ pubs distributed throughout EastSussex. These wonderful old buildings with their low-beamed ceilings, flagstonefloors and inglenook fireplaces evoke a genuine sense of the desperate days offree traders. The events actually occurring during the smuggling heyday providestories every bit as wild as any to be imagined.

Download or read book Harnessing the Power of the Criminal Corpse written by Sarah Tarlow and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-05-17 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book is the culmination of many years of research on what happened to the bodies of executed criminals in the past. Focusing on the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, it looks at the consequences of the 1752 Murder Act. These criminal bodies had a crucial role in the history of medicine, and the history of crime, and great symbolic resonance in literature and popular culture. Starting with a consideration of the criminal corpse in the medieval and early modern periods, chapters go on to review the histories of criminal justice, of medical history and of gibbeting under the Murder Act, and ends with some discussion of the afterlives of the corpse, in literature, folklore and in contemporary medical ethics. Using sophisticated insights from cultural history, archaeology, literature, philosophy and ethics as well as medical and crime history, this book is a uniquely interdisciplinary take on a fascinating historical phenomenon.
