Family and Kinship in England 1450-1800 guides the reader through the changing relationships that made up the nature of family life from the late medieval period to the beginning of industrialisation. It is a clear introduction to many of the areas of interest that this field has opened up, including childhood, youth, marriage, sexuality and death. This new edition has been fully updated to incorporate the latest research on urban communities, emotions and interactions between the family and the parish, town and state. Supported by a range of primary sources, a glossary, a chronology and a who’s who, this is an essential resource for any student of the history of the family.
