| Abstract | The volume addresses 'the road', as object, route, and symbol in Britain: Angus and Hopkins explain that the book explores the 'sustaining interactions between physical environments and the moving human subject' (p. 2), focusing on the early modern period. [...]there is much to be learned from the numerous discussions of vagrancy and life on the roads throughout the work. The basic contention, that Bunyan drew from contemporary fair patterns, and contemporaneous infrastructure proj ects, particularly the Great North Road proj ect and the 1663 laws about drainage and tolls (the Turnpike Act, and the Act for the Bedford Level Corporation) in his representation of the king's highway, is extremely robust. |
