À propos de cet audio

This compelling volume, subtitled A Cyclopaedia of the Condition and Earnings of Those That Will Work, Those That Cannot Work, and Those That Will Not Work, dives deep into the lives of Londons underprivileged. Through the words of the people themselves, it reveals their labor, earnings, struggles, and the raw realities of their existence. Mayhew’s meticulous observations create a vivid portrait of the conditions within their homes and families, bringing to light the often-overlooked heroism amid adversity. His aspiration is to bridge the gap between the affluent and the impoverished, fostering a deeper understanding of the hardships faced by the poor. Published in 1816, this second volume of Henry Mayhews four-part series remains a poignant exploration of social issues that resonate today. - Summary by Peter Yearsley
