How were they maintained and what happened when they were contested? \"Community\" has suffered from a problem intrinsic to historical analysis; the tensions between its past and current meanings. Divided into three parts this book looks first at community and networks - how individuals were bound into communities by religious, professional and social networks. The second part looks at the importance of place - ranging from the Parish, to communities of crime, to the place of political culture. Finally the authors explore the value of rhetoric in generating community - from the King's English to the use of \"public\" as a rhetorical community.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47904438648990,"sku":"ING-9780719054778","price":43.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9780719054778.jpg?v=1782453253","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9780719054778","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
