The Economic Underpinnings of the First Industrial Revolution in England

The economic foundation of the first industrial revolution in the UK The manufacture of munitions and the development of the domestic market were an important foundation of the first industrial revolution in the UK. The military manufacturing industry backed by the UK government promoted technological innovation and promoted industrialization. This is because enterprises that choose to implement government contracts to manufacture military ammunition can obtain funding if new processes and technologies are developed to fulfill large contracts.

It can not be denied that the Industrial Revolution began in the mid 18th century. United Kingdom is the "first industrialized country". As an economic historian commented in the 1960s, the British first took "self-supporting takeoff". By 1850, the UK became an economic superpower. The goal is to spin, dye and weave cotton with two-thirds of the world's industrial areas in northern England. Britain proudly claimed that it was "Germany's world workshop" that lasted until the end of the 19th century, and Japan and the United States exceeded it.

The British Industrial Revolution that began in the 18th century was the turning point for the new world. The modernization of British cities has a great influence not only on the social, economic and political level but also on literary works. The Industrial Revolution brought about major changes in literary works, especially on subjects and words. According to M. H. Aristotle's imitation, Abrams believes that art works are imitations of real life (Abrams 1971). Therefore, literature and literary works as art are closely related to real life situations. The spirit of the world situation and the era can be used as a background for inspiration, background, and stories. In addition, it can serve as a response to the social and political problems of that age.
