The Great Fire of 1666 was one of the greatest catastrophes to
befall London in its long history. While its impact on London and
its built environment has been studied and documented, its impact
on Londoners has been overlooked. This book makes full and
systematic use of the wealth of manuscript sources that illustrate
social, economic and cultural change in seventeenth-century London
to examine the impact of the Fire in terms of how individuals and
communities reacted and responded to it, and to put the response to
the Fire in the context of existing trends in early modern England.
The book also explores the broader effects of the Fire in the rest
of the country, as well as how the Great Fire continued to be an
important polemical tool into the eighteenth century.
