Recenzii
This book is quite probably unique in its investigation, which makes it utterly fascinating and extremely thought-provoking.
The relationship between lodgers and landlords made up much of the warp and weft of daily life in eighteenth-century London. Gilliam Williamson is the first historian to unpick this crucial nexus in all its complexity, from murderous tension to bawdy joy.
This book opens the Georgian front door to reveal a multitude of lodgers. Williamson reconstructs the practicalities of renting space to other people; the door-bells and chamber pots, trunks and bedsteads. Through analysing the complex social relationships that lodging entailed, she vividly enriches histories of 18th-century London, domestic life, commerce, gender and class.
