In these classic works, now reissued by Routledge, Professor Jordan
studies the origins of modern social and cultural institutions in
England. He is concerned with the momentous shift which occurred in
men's aspirations for their society in the course of the sixteenth
and seventeenth centuries, as reflected in the charities which were
established by gifts and bequests. In a fascinating account of the
measures taken by the Tudors and Stuarts to deal with the problem
of poverty, Jordan concludes that it was principally dealt relieved
by an immense outpouring of charitable wealth.
First Published in 2006. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor &
Francis, an informa company.
