Inhoud:

Examination of the history of personal debt and credit from 1740 to 1914 from three interlocking perspectives: representations of debt in novels, diaries and autobiographical memoirs; the transformation of imprisonment for debt; and the use of small claims courts to mediate disputes between debtors and creditors. Includes extensive archival research.
