商品簡介
Nine essays, presented by Kirk (social and labor history, Manchester Metropolitan U., UK), explore the social construction of identity for the population of the north of England. Topics include the expression of identity as expressed in music from Delius to the Beatles; the economic activity between Liverpool and Hull; the evolution of the linguistic patterns of the gentry of the Isle of Manx in response to the increase of visitors from Lancashire and Yorkshire; and the impact of racial, class, and gender constructions on regional identities.
