Book Synopsis The Idea of Property in Seventeenth-century England by : Laura Brace
Download or read book The Idea of Property in Seventeenth-century England written by Laura Brace. This book was released on 1998. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regarded by contemporaries as the chief dispute of our times, tithes were the subject of intense controversy in the 1650s. Ministers, reformers, radicals and sectarians all went into print to defend or destroy the clergy's right to a tenth of the produce of the land. Tithes pushed the limits of private property, and both their opponents and their defenders recognized their significance for ownership, the law, liberty and individuality.

Book Synopsis The Culture of Commerce in England, 1660-1720 by : Natasha Glaisyer
Download or read book The Culture of Commerce in England, 1660-1720 written by Natasha Glaisyer. This book was released on 2006. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Late seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century England - the period between the Restoration and the South Sea Bubble - was dramatically transformed by the massive cost of fighting wars, and, significantly, a huge increase in the re-export trade. This book seeks to ask how commerce was legitimated, promoted, fashioned, defined and understood in this period of spectacular commercial and financial 'revolution'. It examines the packaging and portrayal of commerce, and of commercial knowledge, positioning itself between studies of merchant culture on the one hand and of the commercialisation of society on the other. It focuses on four main areas: the Royal Exchange where the London trading community gathered; sermons preached before mercantile audiences; periodicals and newspapers concerned with trade; and commercial didactic literature. Dr NATASHA GLAISYER teaches in the Department of History at the University of York.
