Description

Explore a major study on the transformation of early modern English rural society. This book examines the fundamental changes in social structures between 1550 and 1750. It begins by addressing three major academic debates: the Brenner Debate, the debate over English Individualism, and the long-running discussion regarding the disappearance of the small landowner. Moving from theory to specific history, the text focuses on Earls Colne in Essex. Although it is one of the most discussed villages in England, it has never before been the subject of a full-length study. Authors French and Hoyle provide a rounded account of this area, including the arrival of the Harlakenden landlord family and the resulting social tensions. This work is an essential resource for those studying British history, rural sociology, and the evolution of English landownership.
