Comparing the gender division of labour in early modern Sweden and England
Historians have agreed that the gender division of labour in rural households was broadly similar across the whole of northern and western Europe during the early modern period. Until recently, however, there has been a lack of detailed data about the historical division of labour within European countries with which to test the validity of such cross-cultural generalizations. New research that has collected evidence of work tasks for early moder…
Work and Identity in Early Modern England
How did work shape people's identity before industrial capitalism? It is a question that early modernists have never really got to grips with. Thanks to decades of research by social and cultural historians, we now have a much better understanding of how people in the past saw themselves and labelled those around them. But until recently scholars of early modern England have had surprisingly little to say about how a person's working life – their…
Rethinking Literacy in Rural England, 1550-1700
Historians have long been accustomed to viewing ordinary men and women in the early modern English countryside as illiterate. They are thought to have had neither the opportunity nor the desire to acquire reading and writing skills that were superfluous to their everyday lives. This article challenges such a view. It draws on a sample of signed legal testimonies from the rural south-west of England, and pays particular attention to the different …
Jonathon Shears, The Hangover
As the final line of Shears’ book states, ‘alcohol use is governed by physiology, but also cultural beliefs and social practices’. This is the central tenet of the field of drinking studies. The past 20 years has seen a growing body of work across the humanities and social sciences successfully rescue alcohol consumption from the enormous condescension of previous academic treatment. Until now though the hangover had been neglected by this schola…
Time and Work in Rural England, 1500-1700
Free of haste, careless of exactitude, unconcerned by productivity.' This is how Jacques Le Goff characterized the temporality of pre-industrial rural working life. In E. P. Thompson's famous argument, it was only with the arrival of the factory and the industrial age that the erratic rhythms of English working people were abruptly swept away by a new imperative for long and regular working hours controlled by the clock. It is a thesis that has b…
The gender division of labour in early modern England
This article presents new evidence of gendered work patterns in the pre-industrial economy, providing an overview of women's work in early modern England. Evidence of 4,300 work tasks undertaken by particular women and men was collected from three types of court documents (coroners' reports, church court depositions, and quarter sessions examinations) from five counties in south-western England (Cornwall, Devon, Hampshire, Somerset, and Wiltshire…
A History of Drink and the English, 1500–2000, by Paul Jennings
The past decade or so has witnessed a boom in the historical study of drink. Widely acknowledged as a central aspect of many societies past and present (and certainly of English society), the subject of the production, consumption and regulation of alcoholic drinks is now starting to receive a degree of scholarly attention proportionate to its importance. Paul Jennings can undoubtedly claim to have been a pioneer in this field, starting his resea…
The Grass Roots of English History
This is David Hey’s final book, as sadly he passed away during its production. It stands as a testament to his extensive knowledge of English local history, a subject that he championed throughout his career while many of his fellow academic historians treated it with indifference. Here Hey characteristically looks to bridge the gap between academic history and the practitioners of local or family history (though his intended audience is principa…

The Honest Tradesman’s Honour’
This paper starts from the proposition that historians of identity in the early modern period have paid insufficient attention to the significance of occupations and work. It demonstrates one possible approach to this topic by exploring the social identity of a particular occupational group – tradesmen – through a study of a particular source – printed broadside ballads. A number of important conclusions result: it argues that historians have ove…

Sociability, Work and Labouring Identity in Seventeenth-Century England
This article explores the relationship between plebeian attitudes about work and plebeian attitudes about sociability. It takes as its start point the term that early modern people themselves used to describe sociability - 'company' - and argues that combining depositional material with an analysis of broadside ballads presents the best way to access such descriptions. What emerges is that the keeping of 'company' was informed by a 'politics of p…
