Excerpt from Gilds: Their Origin, Constitution, Objects and Later History
After my husband's death, in going through the mass of inc0m~ plete material gathered together for the various works on which he was engaged, I found that the mss. Relating to History of Gilds (then being published monthly in T HE antiquarian Magazine) was in a very forward state and I consulted Miss Toulmin Smith, with a view to obtaining her valuable assistance towards the completion of the work. I was, however, reluctantly obliged to abandon this idea, in order to complete, if possible, two still more important works - viz., the Insurance Cyclopaedia and the History of Periodical Literature, on which the author had spent a vast amount of labour and research, extending over (i think) the last twenty years of his life. Eventually I decided, with the help of my husband's cousin, Mr. Edward Walford, in whose Magazine, as before stated, the enlarged reprint of Gilds was being published, to finish the work from the material which I had in hand, with as little alteration or addition as possible. This has now been done, and these few words of explanation must be my apology for the somewhat abrupt conclusion of the work. The last Chapter written entirely by my husband contained the completion of the Gilds of Somerset Chapter XLII.

Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a comprehensive study of the history of Medieval Gilds in England. Originally formed by groups of laborers to pool resources and support one another, the author argues that Gilds later evolved to take on many of the functions of modern-day labor unions and social clubs. In addition to lively accounts of the origins of these organizations, the author provides a rich description of their inner workings and discusses the remarkable scope and significance of their social, religious, industrial, and administrative functions. The scope and depth of this book's analysis will make it both a treasured resource for scholars and a valued acquisition for any reader interested in the history of Medieval England and the forerunners of the institutions around us today.
