Synopsis
When novelist and poet Thomas Hardy (1840-1928) fictionalized the region of England in which he lived, he revived the name of a long extinct Anglo-Saxon kingdom. His Wessex was a rich combination of past, present, and future, showing traditional rural life under assault from the forces of industrialization. The region's prehistoric monuments play a prominent role in his semi-imaginary geography, helping him to resuscitate in his own time the memory of a bygone agrarian England. The earliest of the monuments date from the Neolithic, a period between roughly 4000 and 2000 BC/ BCE, in which the landscape was first reshaped by its inhabitants in an increasingly complex series of interventions-the creation of long barrows, causewayed enclosures, henges, and avenues that connected key structures. Hardy, reworking an already reworked Wessex, is only the most famous to conceptualize this region. Prehistoric Wessex: Towards a Deep Map draws on the resources of the Rare Book & Manuscript, Fine Arts, and other Penn Libraries departments, juxtaposing materials from the libraries' diverse collections that both reveal and contribute to the ongoing construction of Wessex in the cultural imaginary.
