就像本片的体验者、历史学家Ruth Goodman说:
“It's often these sort of intimate little details about people's personal lives I find most fascinating. History's full of all the big stuff,but the details,the day to day,just how you manage often gets forgotten and left by the wayside.”(经常是这种有关人们的个人生活的私密细节让我倍感有趣,历史不乏大事件,然而一些有关人们日常如何过活的细节却经常被人们遗忘和抛弃。)
