역사
A unique tour through British history—from the perspective of the peasants and the poverty-stricken.
The past is traditionally told from the viewpoint of kings and queens, politicians and pioneers. But what about the people struggling to survive at the very lowest levels of society?
A Pauper’s History of England covers a thousand years of poverty, from Domesday right up to the twentieth century, via the Black Death and the English Civil War. It paints a portrait of what life was like for the peasants, paupers, beggars, and working poor as England developed from a feudal society into a wealthy superpower.
Experience the past from a different perspective:
• Tour the England of the Domesday Book
• Make a solemn Franciscan vow of poverty
• Join the Peasants’ Revolt of 1381
• Converse with Elizabethan beggars and learn their secret language
• Meet the inmates of Bedlam Hospital and Bridewell Prison
• Enjoy a gin-soaked Georgian night of debauchery
• Spend the night in a workhouse
• Go slumming in Victorian London, and more!
