Consumption has recently acquired key importance in re-interpreting post-war British politics. Ina Zweiniger-Bargielowska has argued the Conservative construction of a popular alliance in opposition to rationing and controls was crucial to their electoral recovery after 1945 and in securing an advantage among women voters. A wealth of evidence indicates Labour, by contrast, had scant purchase on affluence in the later 1950s. It was not only, as Amy Black and Stephen Brooke would have it, “Labour's befuddlement at the problem of women and gender,” but that it was ambivalent, if not hostile, towards the goods, lifestyles and values associated with consumerism and the people obtaining and exhibiting them. Other factors blur differentiation between the parties. Both were affiliated to the world of production—through their business and trade union links. Richard Findley has contended the Conservative abolition of resale price maintenance (RPM, whereby manufacturers fixed retail prices) in 1964, aroused electorally deleterious opposition from manufacturers and backbenchers. And while Labour consumerists were rare commodities, as is argued here, Labour revisionism made an important contribution to the Consumers' Association (CA). This focus on consumerism corrects the neglect of it by narratives like political consensus or historians' consuming passion with production and work. It arises from rethinking Britain's much vaunted “decline” as, for example, the transition to a post-industrial society. In Matthew Hilton's hands how the consumer “interest” was variously articulated and gendered becomes a means to unlock modern citizenship and the configuration of private and public spheres.

John Stow's abridged chronicles present a short, simplified version of English history that formed an important component of sixteenth-century popular culture. The author was a citizen historian, a self-educated man, whose social status placed him outside the gentry, and a scholar who was closer to medieval traditions than to the New Learning associated with Renaissance humanism. Stow and his chronicles therefore stand apart from the university-educated intellectual elite whose writings shaped the high culture of Elizabethan England. His abridged chronicles, based on his larger Annales of England , offered readers of lower social and economic status a more affordable national history than was available in the larger quarto volumes. This essay considers the character of abridged chronicles, examines Stow's interpretation of a variety of significant topics from the Norman Conquest to the death of Henry VIII, and argues that Stow's work offers valuable insights into the historical understanding of ordinary men and women. For centuries John Stow, identified in the Dictionary of National Biography as a “chronicler and antiquary,” lived in the shadow of more illustrious contemporaries. Shakespeare preferred Raphael Holinshed's chronicle to Stow's Annales of England as the source for his history plays while William Camden was a scholar of vastly greater erudition to whom the DNB assigned the higher status of “historian.” In contrast to the glittering literati of Elizabethan England, Stow is usually cast in gray, a worthy man of negligible learning who through a lifetime of hard work produced books that were generally accurate but dull.
约翰·斯托(John Stow)的简编编年史呈现了一个简短、简化的英国历史版本，它构成了16世纪流行文化的重要组成部分。作者是一位公民历史学家，一个自学成才的人，他的社会地位使他置身于士绅阶层之外，他是一位更接近中世纪传统的学者，而不是与文艺复兴人文主义相关的新学术。因此，斯托和他的编年史与受过大学教育的知识分子精英们不同，他们的作品塑造了伊丽莎白时代的英国高雅文化。他的编年史是在他的《英格兰年历》的基础上删节的，为社会和经济地位较低的读者提供了比四开本更实惠的国家历史。本文考虑了节略编年史的特点，考察了斯托对从诺曼征服到亨利八世之死的各种重要主题的解释，并认为斯托的作品为对普通男女的历史理解提供了宝贵的见解。几个世纪以来，约翰·斯托(John Stow)一直生活在更杰出的同时代人的阴影下，他在《国家传记词典》(Dictionary of National Biography)中被称为“编年史家和古董”。莎士比亚更喜欢拉斐尔·霍林希德的编年史，而不是斯托的《英格兰年历》，作为他历史剧的来源，而威廉·卡姆登是一位博学得多的学者，DNB赋予了他更高的“历史学家”地位。与英国伊丽莎白时代那些光彩夺目的文人相比，斯托通常是灰色的，他是一个值得尊敬的人，几乎没有什么学问，通过一生的辛勤工作，他写的书总体上是准确的，但枯燥无味。
