Classes and Cultures: England 1918-1951

Ross McKibbin

4.9/5 (14979 ratings)

Description:This book investigates the ways in which ‘class culture’ characterised English society, and intruded into every aspect of life, during the period from 1918 to the mid-1950s. It demonstrates the influence of social class within the mini ‘cultures’ which together constitute society: families and family life, friends and neighbours, the workplace, schools and colleges, religion, sexuality, sport, music, film, and radio. The book considers the ways in which language was used (both spoken and written) to define one's social grouping, and how far changes occurred to language and culture more generally as a result of increasing American influence. It assesses the role of status and authority in English society, the social significance of the monarchy and the upper classes, the opportunities for social mobility, and the social and ideological foundations of English politics. The book exposes the fundamental structures and belief systems which underpinned English society in the first half of the 20th century.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
