| 520 | |a "This book discusses human mobility from Milton to Malthus. Each chapter of focuses on a group of subjects vulnerable to coerced mobility: the landless poor (Chapter 1); the native Irish (Chapter 2); army veterans (Chapter 3); the rural poor displaced by enclosure (Chapter 4); the Scots (Chapter 5); humanity imagined under the pressure of pandemic (Chapter 6); and the poor again under the new Poor Laws of the 1830s (Chapter 7). The first two chapters provide complementary accounts of the intersection between population and mobility: the first focusing on legal and economic policy toward the poor in relation to Milton's Paradise Lost; the second on the emergent science of political arithmetic as critiqued by Swift in his writing about Ireland. The first focuses on people, the second on numbering. These two chapters, plus a third, make up the first conceptual half of the book. They look at the concern prevalent from the Restoration to the mid-eighteenth century, triggered by the seeming superfluity of British population, to find a way for persons thought useless to the state-the poor, the Irish, and army veterans-to become useful again, usually by deploying them to "vacant" colonial spaces. The next three chapters, centered on Goldsmith's The Deserted Village, Scott's The Heart of Midlothian, and Shelley's The Last Man, examine the shift in the second half of the eighteenth century to anxiety about depopulation and the effect of disease, murder, and dispossession on England's sense of its identity in relation to its empire. Finally, the book turns to the work of Thomas Malthus, positioning it as an epistemological watershed as it reconceptualized peopling as a problem of time rather than space-a problem of futurity rather than territory"-- |c Provided by publisher | ||
