Zusammenfassung:GBS_insertPreviewButtonPopup('ISBN:9780748619658);This book explores the ordinary daily routines, behaviours, experiences and beliefs of the Scottish people during a period of immense political, social and economic change. It underlines the importance of the church in post-Reformation Scottish society, but also highlights aspects of everyday life that remained the same, or similar, notwithstanding the efforts of the kirk, employers and the state to alter behaviours and attitudes.Drawing upon and interrogating a range of primary sources, the authors create a richly coloured, highly-nuanced picture of the lives of ordinary Scots from birth through marriage to death. Analytical in approach, the coverage of topics is wide, ranging from the ways people made a living, through their non-work activities including reading, playing and relationships, to the ways they experienced illness and approached death.This volume:Provides a rich and finely nuanced social history of the period 1600-1800Gets behind the politics of Union and Jacobitism, and the experience of agricultural and industrial 'revolution'Presents the scholarly expertise of its contributing authors in a accessible wayIncludes a guide to further reading indicating sources for further study
