Description

The purpose of this collection is to bring together representative examples of the most recent work that is taking an understanding of children and childhood in new directions.

The two key overarching themes are diversity: social, economic, geographical, and cultural; and agency: the need to see children in industrial England as participants - even protagonists - in the process of historical change, not simply as passive recipients or victims.

Contributors address such crucial subjects as the varied experience of work; poverty and apprenticeship; institutional care; the political voice of children; child sexual abuse; and children and education.

This volume, therefore, includes some of the best, innovative work on the history of children and childhood currently being written by both younger and established scholars.
