Description

Using examples from different historical contexts, Class, Culture and the Agrarian Myth examines the relationship between class, nationalism, modernity and the agrarian myth. Essentialising rural identity, traditional culture and quotidian resistance, both aristocratic / plebeian and pastoral / Darwinian forms of agrarian myth discourse inform struggles waged 'from above' and 'from below', surfacing in peasant movements, film and travel writing.

Author Biography:
