Description

Explore the historical debate of town versus country in British society with Paradise Lost: Rural Idyll and Social Change Since 1800. This volume, part of the International Library of Historical Studies, examines how artists and writers have shaped perceptions of the countryside since the Industrial Revolution. The text investigates how these views influenced government policy, social structures, and economic trends. It addresses significant shifts such as post-war rural-urban commuting and environmentalist critiques of modern industrial farming. Readers will gain insight into whether these changes have broken the traditional distinction between urban and rural life or if they represent a continuation of the rural idyll's pull.
