The Drapers in America
Author: Thomas Waln-Morgan DraperPublisher: Pantianos Classics
ISBN:
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 372
Book Description
The Drapers were one of the first families to settle in North America during the 17th century; this genealogy and history spans from their earliest beginnings to the late 1800s. A lengthy and thoroughly researched genealogical enquiry, The Drapers represents years of painstaking research undertaken by Thomas Waln-Morgan Draper in the 1890s. The cataloguing of various branches of the family, as well as chronicling their lives and activities in various locales in Massachusetts and elsewhere, was no easy feat. We are taken through the ancestors sequentially, with those who were noteworthy - such as through leadership, commerce or wartime valor - given biographical paragraphs of their deeds. While much of the content lists names of family members and their offspring, generation after generation, the anecdotal style of telling adopted by Thomas Draper helps make this genealogy both interesting and a unique source. Much of the knowledge related here is from local records and memories which have otherwise been lost to time. Thus modern-day Drapers - or simply those interested in a qualitative familial history of New England - may glean insights otherwise unobtainable.
The Culture of Cloth in Early Modern England
Author: Roze HentschellPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317036697
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
Through its exploration of the intersections between the culture of the wool broadcloth industry and the literature of the early modern period, this study contributes to the expanding field of material studies in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century England. The author argues that it is impossible to comprehend the development of emerging English nationalism during that time period, without considering the culture of the cloth industry. She shows that, reaching far beyond its status as a commodity of production and exchange, that industry was also a locus for organizing sentiments of national solidarity across social and economic divisions. Hentschell looks to textual productions-both imaginative and non-fiction works that often treat the cloth industry with mythic importance-to help explain how cloth came to be a catalyst for nationalism. Each chapter ties a particular mode, such as pastoral, prose romance, travel propaganda, satire, and drama, with a specific issue of the cloth industry, demonstrating the distinct work different literary genres contributed to what the author terms the 'culture of cloth'.
