Focusing on three families and drawing on detailed analysis of account books, receipted bills, household inventories, diaries and correspondence, this book charts the spending patterns of this elite group during the so-called consumer revolution of the eighteenth century. Generally examined through the lens of middling families, homes and motivations, this book explores the ways in which the aristocracy were engaged in this wider transformation of English society. Analysis centres on the goods that the aristocracy purchased, both luxurious and mundane; the extent to which they pursued fashionable modes and goods; the role that family and friends played in shaping notions of taste; the influence of gender on taste and refinement; the geographical reach of provisioning and the networks that lay behind this consumer activity, and the way this all contributed to the construction of the country house. The country house thus emerges as much more than a repository of luxury and splendour; it lay at the heart of complex networks of exchange, sociability, demand, and supply. 650 0 $a Country homes $x History $z England $x History $y 18th century. 650 0 $a Country homes $x History $z England $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Country homes $x History $z England $x History $y 18th century. 650 0 $a Country homes $x History $z England $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Architecture $z England $x History $y 18th century. 650 0 $a Architecture $z England $x History $y 19th century. 651 0 $a England $x Social life and customs $y 18th century. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85043323 651 0 $a England $x Social life and customs $y 19th century. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85043324 650 7 $8 1.1\x $a Konsumentenverhalten. $0 (DE-STW)10300-3 $0 (DE-STW)10300-3 $2 stw 650 7 $8 1.2\x $a Adel. $0 (DE-STW)19748-5 $0 (DE-STW)19748-5 $2 stw 650 7 $8 1.3\x $a LandbevoÌlkerung. $0 (DE-STW)13454-3 $0 (DE-STW)13454-3 $2 stw 650 7 $8 1.4\x $a Geschichte. $0 (DE-STW)15690-2 $0 (DE-STW)15690-2 $2 stw 650 7 $8 1.5\x $a England. $0 (DE-601)091407001 $2 stw 700 1 $a Rothery, Mark, $d 1973- $e author. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2012020174 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213012217.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E5111CF600D411E888826E0497128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
