English society, 1580-1680

English Society, 1580-1680 paints a fascinating picture of society and social 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 processes of transition, to build up an overall interpretation of continuity and change. -- Book cover
