Consumption is well established as a key theme in the study of the
eighteenth century. Spaces of Consumption brings a new dimension to
this subject by looking at it spatially. Taking English towns as
its scene, this inspiring new study focuses on moments of
consumption - selecting and purchasing goods, attending plays,
promenading - and explores the ways in which these were related
together through the spaces of the town: the shop, the theatre and
the street. Using this fresh form of analysis, it has much to say
about sociability, politeness and respectability in the eighteenth
century.
