A great deal has been written about the acceleration of English agriculture in the
early modern period. In the late middle ages it was hard to see that English
agriculture was so very different from that of the continent, but by
1750
levels of
agricultural productivity in Britain were well ahead of those in northern Europe.
The country had become much more urban and the proportion of the population
engaged in agriculture had fallen. Customary modes of behaviour, whilst often
bitterly defended, had largely been swept away. Contemporaries were quite clear
that a process of improvement had taken place which had seen agriculture reshaped
and made much more productive. Exactly what that process was has remained
surprisingly obscure.
This volume addresses the fundamental notion of improvement in the
development ot the British landscape from the sixteenth to the nineteenth century .
Contributors present a variety of cases of how improvement, custom and resistance
impacted on the local landscape, which includes manorial estates, enclosures, fens,
forests and urban commons. Disputes between tenants and landlords, and between
neighbouring landlords, over improvement meant that new economic and social
identities were forged in the battle between innovation and tradition. The volume
also includes an analysis of the role ot women as agricultural improvers and a case
study ot what can happen when radical improvement failed. The volume will be
essential reading for scholars of landscape studies, rural and agrarian history, but
will also provide a useful context for anybody studying the historical legacy of
mankind s exploitation ot the environment and its social, economic, legal and
political consequences.
