In this book the emergence of schools in urban Sweden between the
seventeenth and the nineteenth century provides the framework for a
history of children and of childhood. It is a study through the
lens of the changes in early modern education, spatial aspect of
the life of children and systems of governance in the early modern
Swedish state. Educational systems defined the spatial aspects of
childhood-where children were supposed to grow up, in the home, the
school, the streets and alleys, or the place of work-over a period
of about two hundred years. Schools and education represent both a
mental and a physical space; an abstract place for children as well
as a local and concrete place for them, which stood out against the
alternative spatial aspects of the life of children. It is also a
study of how different cultural systems influence the definitions
of childhood and schools, in the context of church and home
instruction, poor relief, policing, surveillance, and the question
of why children went to schools. It examines the role of the school
as childcare and as a provider of food, shelter and welfare, and as
governance.
