In eighteenth-century Britain, greater numbers of people entered
the marketplace and bought objects in ever-greater quantities. As
consumers rather than producers, how did their understandings of
manufacturing processes and the material world change? Material
goods and moving hands combines material culture and visual culture
approaches to explore the different ways in which manufacturers and
retailers presented production to consumers during the eighteenth
century. It shows how new relationships with production processes
encouraged consumers, retailers, designers, manufacturers and
workers to develop conflicting understandings of production.
Objects then were not just markers of fashion and taste, they acted
as important conduits through which people living in Georgian
Britain could examine and discuss their material world and the
processes and knowledge that rendered it. -- .
