“…As Cannadine argues, these continued to be hugely important to the aristocracy, even as they were being layered with newer priorities and ideals. 93 Further, it questions the position afforded to the aristocracy within wider models of consumer change. Certainly, the Leighs were active consumers who sought to reinforce their social and cultural standing through displays of splendour, fashion, and taste; but, in maintaining their awareness of title and inheritance, they continued to draw on value systems and status markers unavailable to the middling sorts.…”
