Defiled Trades and Social Outcasts: Honor and Ritual Pollution in Early Modern Germany - Cambridge Studies in Early Modern History
Stuart, Kathy (University of California, Davis)
A social and cultural history of 'dishonourable people' (unehrliche Leute). This book examines an outcast group in early modern Germany which included executioners, skinners, grave-diggers, shepherds, barber-surgeons, millers, latrine-cleaners, and bailiffs, and shows how the pollution anxieties of early modern Germans structured social and political relations within 'honourable' society.
