Session, in favour of far-fetched subjects, of the Arcadian cast, whieh'have to boast neither of nature nor truth. Shepherds and shepherdesses, in a state of perfea; happiness, bowers of un-fading bliss, and streams of inexhaustable pleasure, exist no 'ldnger, but in the wild vagaries of Im agination and the majority of mankind 'has become weary of following herthrough long labyrinths, which resemble passa. Ges that lead to A thomson.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the changing nature of rural life in England, focusing on the displacement of small farmers by large landowners. The author argues that this process, driven by the pursuit of profit and the rise of industrial capitalism, has had devastating consequences for rural communities and the traditional way of life they embody. The book delves into the social and economic history of rural England, tracing the decline of the peasantry and the rise of a new class of wealthy landowners. It also examines the impact of these changes on the landscape, culture, and social fabric of rural England. The book's insights shed light on the complex forces that have shaped rural life over centuries, and offer a timely reminder of the importance of preserving traditional communities and values in the face of modernization.
