"A brilliant and persuasive synthesis of the best recent work in
all fields of seventeenth century English history."--Christopher
Hill "A triumphant success . . . deserves to be widely read."--H.
T. Dickinson "Conceived as an intellectual whole and vibrantly
alive."--John Kenyon, The Observer English Society, 1580-1680
paints a fascinating picture of society and societal change in the
late sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. It discusses both the
enduring characteristics of society as well as the course of social
change. The book emphasizes the wide variation in experience
between different social groups and local communities, and the
unevenness of the process of transition, to build up an overall
interpretation of continuity and change. In this edition, Keith
Wrightson provides a new introduction to set the book in its
context and to reflect on recent research, together with an updated
guide to further reading. Keith Wrightson is a professor of history
at Yale University. His many books include Earthly Necessities:
Economic Lives in Early Modern Britain.
