内容説明
An important new study which considers how the English landed gentry secured their position of wealth and power from the mid seventeenth century. Over this crucial century they were transformed from a provincial social order to a national ruling elite. The history of the gentry and aristocracy has been the subject of much lively scholarship in recent years. This contribution looks at the shaping of the cultural identity of the landed classes, the new world of party politics in late Stuart and early Hanoverian eras and the influence of the ruling class on the supposed political stability of the mid-eighteenth century.

Central government and national politics. 6. Cultural separation and cultural politics. 7. The influence of the metropolis. 8. Conclusion.

The author addresses the shaping of the cultural identity of the landed classes: their increasingly cosmopolitan outlook, their role in the new world party in the late Hanoverian eras and their influence on the supposed political stability of the mid-18th century.
