Download or read book Elite Women and Polite Society in Eighteenth century Scotland written by Katharine Glover and published by Boydell Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women are shown to have played an important and very visible role in society at the time. Fashionable "polite" society of this period emphasised mixed-gender sociability and encouraged the visible participation of elite women in a series of urban, often public settings. Using a variety of sources (both men's and women's correspondence, accounts, bills, memoirs and other family papers), this book investigates the ways in which polite social practices and expectations influenced the experience of elite femininity in Scotland in the eighteenth century. It explores women's education and upbringing; their reading practices; the meanings of the social spaces and activities in which they engaged and how this fed over into the realm of politics; and the fashion for tourism at home and abroad. It also asks how elite women used polite social spaces and practices to extend their mental horizons and to form a sense of belonging to a public at a time when Scotland was among the most intellectually vibrant societies in Europe.

Download or read book New York City Neighborhoods written by Nan A. Rothschild and published by Eliot Werner Publications/Percheron Press. This book was released on 2008-12-31 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An archaeological study of the growth of Manhattan during the colonial period, this book documents the emergence of Manhattan as the center of class-structured capitalist commercialism in the new nation-state. A new introduction by the author updates her analysis in light of subsequent excavations at urban sites (both in New York and elsewhere) and theoretical advances in the understanding of urban public space. From the reviews "This is the first major publication to integrate New York City archaeological data into a broader context . . . . [A]t once a long overdue reference for the student of New York City history while at the same time a point of departure for broader studies of urban development." Valerie DeCarlo in American Antiquity "This work is a building block. It raises important questions and proposes a methodology . . . that make sense for the analysis of archeological data and the creation of historical ethnography." Barbara J. Little in Science "[A]n impressive view of New York's colonial development oriented toward the interaction between wealth and ethnicity, with insights into urban structure. . . . This book should be of interest to students of cities and urban studies and of New York specifically." Stanley South in American Anthropologist "[A] welcome addition to the impoverished (quantitatively speaking) or deliciously rich (qualitatively speaking) 1980's monographs written by historical archaeologists. . . . It is an admirable piece of work that builds on 15 years of experience with urban resources." Anne Yentsch in Historical Archaeology

Download or read book The York Grand Lodge written by David Harrison and published by Arima Publishing. This book was released on 2014-06-02 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book by award winning Masonic author Dr David Harrison tells the story of the staunchly independent Grand Lodge of All England at York and its rise and fall during the eighteenth century; looking at its leaders, its ritual and its influence on modern Freemasonry. The book also puts forward new evidence that reveals that the York Grand Lodge may have survived longer than originally thought, and how it may have influenced that other northern rebellious body of Freemasons - The Wigan Grand Lodge. Any one that enjoyed Harrison's previous works The Transformation of Freemasonry and especially The Liverpool Masonic Rebellion and the Wigan Grand Lodge will certainly enjoy this new book, which aims to enlighten readers in respect to the more independent styles of eighteenth century Freemasonry.
