Recenzii
'Deborah Valenze's extraordinarily original The Social Life of Money in the English Past removes the history of money from the economists and inserts it into the lives of people who cannot quite understand it but find they have to live by it. The issues it raises go well beyond eighteenth-century Britain.' The Guardian
'Using personal letters, diary entries, pamphlets, allegorical tales, poems, plays, and visual art, the Social Life of Money is seen from a variety of perspectives. Anthropological, literary, feminist, and social theories are firmly integrated into a dense analysis of social change in early modern England.' Literature and History
