This 2007 text was the first single volume in recent years to
provide an overview and assessment of the most important research
that has been published on the English family in the past three
decades. Some of the most distinguished historians of family life,
together with the next generation of historians working in the
field, present previously unpublished archival research to shed
light on family ideals and experiences in the early modern period.
Contributions to this volume interrogate the definitions and
meanings of the term 'family' in the past, showing how the family
was a locus for power and authority, as well as personal or
subjective identity, and exploring how expectations as well as
realities of family behaviour could be shaped by ideas of
childhood, youth, adulthood and old age. This pioneering collection
of essays will appeal to scholars of early modern British history,
social history, family history and gender studies.
