Sommario/riassunto

In the wake of the American and French revolutions, European culture saw the evolution of a new leisure regime never previously enjoyed.  Now we speak of modern leisure societies, but the history of leisure, its experiences and expectations, its scope and variability, still remains largely a matter of conjecture. One message that has emerged from a multiplicity of disciplines is that research on leisure and consumption opens up a hitherto untapped mine of information on the broader issues of politics, society, culture and economics.
