A Cultural and Social History of Possession in Eighteenth-Century Britain
Description
What did it mean to possess something – or someone – in eighteenth-century Britain? This study examines the meaning of possession by exploring how owners experienced and responded to loss. It offers a social and cultural history of ownership and uncovers how understandings of self-worth came to be bound up with possession.
