Warminster Common: Shewing the Steps by which it Has Advanced from Its Former State of Notorious Vice, Ignorance, and Poverty, to Its Present State of Moral and Social Improvement
Warminster common
The Archaeology of Improvement in Britain, 1750–1850
Author: Sarah Tarlow
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139462741
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 202
Book Description
In this innovative 2007 study, Sarah Tarlow shows how the archaeology of this period manifests a widespread and cross-cutting ethic of improvement. Theoretically informed and drawn from primary and secondary sources in a range of disciplines, the author considers agriculture and the rural environment, towns, and buildings such as working-class housing and institutions of reform. From bleach baths to window glass, rubbish pits to tea wares, the material culture of the period reflects a particular set of values and aspirations. Tarlow examines the philosophical and historical background to the notion of improvement and demonstrates how this concept is a useful lens through which to examine the material culture of later historical Britain.
