35、cess in marketing luxury pottery. plumb has written about the proliferation of provincial theaters, musical festivals and childrens toys and books. while the fact of this consumer revolution is hardly in doubt, three key questions remain： who were the consumers what were their motives and what were

36、the effects of the new demand for luxuriesan answer to the first of these has been difficult to obtain. although it has been possible to infer from the goods and service actually produced what manufacturers and servicing trades thought their customers wanted, only a study of relevant personal docume

37、nts written by actual consumers will provide a precise picture of who wanted what. we still need to know how large this consumer market was and how far down the social scale the consumer demand for luxury goods penetrated. with regard to this last question, we might note in passing that thompson, wh

42、 toward explaining the coming of the industrial revolution. but does it what for example, does the production of high-quality potterv and leys have to do with the development of iron manufacture or textile mills it is perfectly possible to have the psychology and reality of consumer society without

43、a heavy industrial sector.that future exploration of these key questions is undoubtedly necessary should not. however, diminish the force of the conclusion of recent studies： the insatiable demand in eighteenth-centuryengland for frivolous as well as useful goods and services foreshadows our own wor

54、t be put down as true that any marriage entered into as an escape cannot prove entirely successful. the sad fact is that marriage seldom solves ones problems： more often, it accentuates them. furthermore, it is doubtful whether the home as an institution is capable of carrying all that the young are

55、 seeking to put into it： one might say in theological terms, that they are giving up one idol only to worship another. young people correctly understand that their parents are wrong in believing that success is the ultimate good, but they erroneously believe that they themselves have found the true
