Riddell constructs a new lens to examine rural society in the nineteenth century, through which he extends and challenges Carter’s analysis. In recovering a breadth of people and their social networks through prosopographical data, the book reveals the agency of individuals who left minimal records. Riddell not only puts forward a fresh perspective on the social structures of Scotland’s north-eastern society but also informs a discussion on the nature of Britishness both within concepts of a developed western civilisation and beyond them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will interest a broad readership; Scottish history enthusiasts, pursuers of Digital Genealogy and, scholars and students of the Digital Humanities will all find value in this study.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54250066084184,"sku":"9780367560393","price":192.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780367560393_10677c05-2e2b-48d6-958e-a8fc35b5a72b.jpg?v=1767951919","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/digital-genealogy-as-second-wave-digital-humanities","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
