A group of five talks by W. G. Hoskins
1—Ordeal by Planning
Wlhite the geologist may explain the fundamental structure of the landscape, the bones that give shape to the scene, it is the historian's task to show how man has clothed the geological skeleton during the comparatively recent past. In these talks Dr. Hoskins Reader in Economic History in the University of Oxford, is oonoemed with the various ways by which man-from Saxon to Victorian times — has altered the shape of the natural landscape. In this talk Dr. Hoskins reconsiders the view that the parliamentary enclosure movement changed England, almost overnight, into a country of hedges and singing birds, and he examines the effects of enclosure on the English landscape.
