Description

Explore the intersection of leisure, social class, and cultural control in Victorian England through this comprehensive academic study. This volume examines how the concept of rational recreation shaped entertainment and working-class life between 1830 and 1885, tracing the rise of Victorian music halls and the stark divisions between middle-class and working-class recreation. Part of the respected Studies in Social History series published by Routledge, the book analyses popular recreation trends, class tensions, and the cultural forces that sought to regulate leisure activities across society. Ideal for historians, sociology students, and anyone interested in understanding how Victorians negotiated entertainment, morality, and social hierarchy through the lens of everyday leisure practices.

Key Features

Focuses on leisure and class dynamics in Victorian England during the crucial period of 1830-1885, examining how recreation reflected broader social divisions.

Includes dedicated analysis of Victorian music halls as significant entertainment venues and sites of class conflict within the leisure industry.

Explores rational recreation movements and attempts by authorities to control and shape working-class entertainment and moral behaviour.

Published by Routledge as part of the authoritative Studies in Social History series, offering rigorous academic scholarship.

Combines historical narrative with sociological analysis of middle-class versus working-class approaches to popular recreation and cultural activities.
