How were children cared for, what did they play with, and what dangers did they face? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In this beautifully illustrated and characteristically lively account, leading historian Nicholas Orme provides a rich survey of childhood in the period. Beginning with birth and infancy, he explores all aspects of children's experiences, including the games they played, such as Blind Man's Bluff and Mumble-the-Peg, and the songs they sang, such as \"Three Blind Mice\" and \"Jack Boy, Ho Boy.\" He shows how social status determined everything from the food children ate and the clothes they wore to the education they received and the work they undertook. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Although childhood and adolescence could be challenging and even hazardous, it was also, as Nicholas Orme shows, a treasured time of learning and development. By looking at the lives of Tudor children we can gain a richer understanding of the era as a whole.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nicholas Orme\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0300276117\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300276114\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/30\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.83h x 5.18w x 0.82d","brand":"Nicholas Orme","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44716580077823,"sku":"9780300276114","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_750f8499-d0f4-448c-afc0-0908e5073af9.jpg?v=1705682896","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/tudor-children-nicholas-orme-9780300276114","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
