The Family Life of Ralph Josselin, a Seventeenth-Century Clergyman: An Essay in Historical Anthropology
ISBN: 9780393008494 / Angielski / Miękka / 1977 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Ralph Josselin, vicar of Earls Colne in Essex from 1641 to his death in 1683, kept for almost forty years a remarkably detailed account of his life--his mental and emotional world as well as his activities. Few diaries from this period afford such a rounded picture of a family from so many aspects. Alan Macfarlane, a historian and lecturer in social anthropology at Cambridge University, explores through the diary Josselin's life as a farmer, businessman, Puritan clergyman, neighbor, husband, and father, providing a unique view of seventeenth-century life from the inside.

English Historical Records
ISBN: 9780521079808 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book describes the nature of English historical records over the period 1200 1800. It surveys the records created by the state, the estates of landlords, and the Church. The work arises from an intensive research project (1973 81), which involved the manual and computerised analysis of all the surviving records for two parishes, in Westmorland and Essex, up to 1800. The book considers the administrative and judicial process, which led to the compilation of the documents, the survival and quantity of each class, the location and form of the material, and the hidden omissions, inaccuracies...

The Culture of Capitalism
ISBN: 9780631165576 / Angielski / Miękka / 1989 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. As both a historian and an anthropologist, Alan Macfarlane is able to explore capitalist society from a number of original perspectives. It is the essence of his argument that capitalism is more than an economic system: it is a culture that affects not just the material but also the social, familial, and even spiritual bases of existence. Drawing on new research data generated by detailed historical community studies, and literature on non–western societies, he offers searching observations on the origins of modern civilization. He considers, for example, the nature of evil, attitudes...
