This book offers an insight into the social relationships and
topographies that fashioned both city life and landscape and serves
as a useful counterpoise in a field that has largely focused on
London. This is a book about seventeenth-century Norwich and its
inhabitants. At its core are the interconnected themes of social
topographies and the relationships between urban inhabitants and
their environment. Cityscapes were, and are, shaped and given
meaning during the practice of people's lived experiences. In
return, those same urban places lend human interactions depth and
quality. Social Relations and Urban Space uncovers manifold
possible landscapes, including those belonging to the rich and to
the poor, to men, to women, to 'strangers and foreigners', to
political actors of both formal and informal means. Norwich's
inhabitants witnessed the tumultuous seventeenth centuryat first
hand, and their experiences were written into the landscape and
immortalised in its exemplary surviving records. This book offers
an insight into the social relationships and topographies that
fashioned both city life and landscape and serves as a useful
counterpoise in a field that has largely focused on London. FIONA
WILLIAMSON is currently Senior Lecturer in History at the National
University of Malaysia.
