Master and Servant

Focusing on an unconventional relationship between a Church of England clergyman and his pregnant maidservant, this book explores love and domestic service in eighteenth-century England. Set against the backdrop of significant historical events, it challenges traditional narratives by examining themes such as Anglicanism, the economic impacts of the industrial revolution, and the dynamics of domestic service. The work also reflects on the intersections of history and literature, making it valuable for scholars and students interested in social and cultural history.
