Download or read book The English Peasantry and the Growth of Lordship written by Rosamond Faith and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1999-04-01 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This account of the changing relationship between lords and peasants in medieval England challenges many received ideas about the "origins of the manor", the status of the Anglo-Saxon peasantry, the 12th-century economy and the origins of villeinage. The author covers the period from the end of the Roman empire to the late-12th century, tracing in post-Conquest society the continuing influence of developments which originated in Anglo-Saxon England. Drawing on work in archaeology and landscape studies, as well as on documentary sources, the book describes a fundamental division within the peasantry: that between the very dependent tenants and agricultural workers on the "inland" of the estates of ministers, kinds and lords, and the more independent peasantry of the "warland". The study leads to the expression of views on many aspects of the development of society in the period.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Peasantry It is a remarkable circumstance that, notwithstanding the great and growing importance of the subject, no comprehensive work on the English peasantry has appeared since the commencement of the movement which led to the establishment of the National Agricultural Labourers' Union. The only comprehensive sources of information in reference to this subject are the Reports of the Royal Commission (1867) on the Employment of Women and Children in Agriculture. But these Reports, included in seven large and closely-printed Blue Books, are far too bulky for general use; besides which, the information contained in them is not arranged in a manner adapted for popular reading.

Download or read book The Ties that Bound written by Barbara A. Hanawalt and published by New York : Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1986 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Barbara A. Hanawalt's richly detailed account offers an intimate view of everyday life in Medieval England that seems at once surprisingly familiar and yet at odds with what many experts have told us. She argues that the biological needs served by the family do not change and that the ways fourteenth- and fifteenth-century peasants coped with such problems as providing for the newborn and the aged, controlling premarital sex, and alleviating the harshness of their material environment in many ways correspond with our twentieth-century solutions. Using a remarkable array of sources, including over 3,000 coroners' inquests into accidental deaths, Hanawalt emphasizes the continuity of the nuclear family from the middle ages into the modern period by exploring the reasons that families served as the basic unit of society and the economy. Providing such fascinating details as a citation of an incantation against rats, evidence of the hierarchy of bread consumption, and descriptions of the games people played, her study illustrates the flexibility of the family and its capacity to adapt to radical changes in society. She notes that even the terrible population reduction that resulted from the Black Death did not substantially alter the basic nature of the family.

Download or read book From British Peasants to Colonial American Farmers written by Allan Kulikoff and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2014-02-01 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With this book, Allan Kulikoff offers a sweeping new interpretation of the origins and development of the small farm economy in Britain's mainland American colonies. Examining the lives of farmers and their families, he tells the story of immigration to the colonies, traces patterns of settlement, analyzes the growth of markets, and assesses the impact of the Revolution on small farm society. Beginning with the dispossession of the peasantry in early modern England, Kulikoff follows the immigrants across the Atlantic to explore how they reacted to a hostile new environment and its Indian inhabitants. He discusses how colonists secured land, built farms, and bequeathed those farms to their children. Emphasizing commodity markets in early America, Kulikoff shows that without British demand for the colonists' crops, settlement could not have begun at all. Most important, he explores the destruction caused during the American Revolution, showing how the war thrust farmers into subsistence production and how they only gradually regained their prewar prosperity.
