520 |a Before the rise of private homes as we now understand them, the realm of personal, private, and local relations in England was the parish, which was also the sphere of poverty management.

Expanding its scope beyond the parameters of literary history and previous studies of domesticity, this book posits that the modern middle-class home was conceived during the eighteenth century in England, and that its first inhabitants were the poor.
