Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Social History of the People of the Southern Counties of England in Past Centuries: Illustrated in Regard to Their Habits, Municipal Bye-Laws, Civil Progress, Etc The rare opportunity afforded me of access to archives abounding with new materials for local and general history has furnished employment for the leisure of past years. Researches commenced in this new field disclosed many particulars of the former condition of our countrymen, the strictness of our borough magistrates, and the general state of provincial civilisation. These have been made available for the express correction of a very general ignorance of our Social History that prevails. That great historian Thucydides remarked the existence of the same in Greece; and explains this general weakness of mankind, arising from their receiving alike, without examination, from each other, the reports of past events, even though they may have happened in their own country. And he cites some remarkable examples of incorrect notions possessed by his countrymen, even of affairs of their own time. The same historian concludes with a remark found to be true in every age: - "With so little pains is the investigation of truth pursued by most men, that they rather turn to views already formed."

Book Witchcraft  Witch Hunting  and Politics in Early Modern England

Download or read book Witchcraft Witch Hunting and Politics in Early Modern England written by Peter Elmer and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-14 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Witchcraft, Witch-hunting, and Politics in Early Modern England constitutes a wide-ranging and original overview of the place of witchcraft and witch-hunting in the broader culture of early modern England. Based on a mass of new evidence extracted from a range of archives, both local and national, it seeks to relate the rise and decline of belief in witchcraft, alongside the legal prosecution of witches, to the wider political culture of the period. Building on the seminal work of scholars such as Stuart Clark, Ian Bostridge, and Jonathan Barry, Peter Elmer demonstrates how learned discussion of witchcraft, as well as the trials of those suspected of the crime, were shaped by religious and political imperatives in the period from the passage of the witchcraft statute of 1563 to the repeal of the various laws on witchcraft. In the process, Elmer sheds new light upon various issues relating to the role of witchcraft in English society, including the problematic relationship between puritanism and witchcraft as well as the process of decline.

Book Ale  Beer  and Brewsters in England

Download or read book Ale Beer and Brewsters in England written by Judith M. Bennett and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1996-11-07 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women brewed and sold most of the ale consumed in medieval England, but after 1350, men slowly took over the trade. By 1600, most brewers in London were male, and men also dominated the trade in many towns and villages. This book asks how, when, and why brewing ceased to be women's work and instead became a job for men. Employing a wide variety of sources and methods, Bennett vividly describes how brewsters (that is, female brewers) gradually left the trade. She also offers a compelling account of the endurance of patriarchy during this time of dramatic change.
