It focuses on Joseph Woolley the stockingmaker, on his way of seeing and writing the world around him, and on the activities of magistrate Sir Gervase Clifton, administering justice from his country house Clifton Hall. Using Woolley's voluminous diaries and Clifton's magistrate records, Carolyn Steedman gives us a unique and fascinating account of working-class living and loving, and getting and spending. Through Woolley and his thoughts on reading and drinking, sex, the law and social relations, she challenges traditional accounts which she argues have overstated the importance of work to the working man's understanding of himself, as a creature of time, place and society. She shows instead that, for men like Woolley, law and fiction were just as critical as work in framing everyday life. 606 $aWorking class$zGreat Britain$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aWorking class$zGreat Britain$xSocial conditions$y19th century 607 $aNottingham (England)$xSocial conditions$y19th century 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory$y1800-1837 615 0$aWorking class$xHistory 615 0$aWorking class$xSocial conditions 676 $a305.5/62094209034 700 $aSteedman$b Carolyn$0676280 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464889303321 996 $aAn everyday life of the English working class$92484358 997 $aUNINA
