In Praise of Ordinary PeopleIn Praise of Ordinary People

In Praise of Ordinary People

C. Secretan, M. Jacob

About this book

The discipline of social history has still not given enough attention to the ways in which the perceptions and roles of "ordinary" people changed over time. In these fascinating British and Dutch cases, we see how the study of this evolution imparts historical texture and enables us to understand early modernity with greater clarity.
