Akutagawa daily 1712/★
'sahafçı abiyle çok güzel sohbet ettik, Platon’dan Aristoteles’e, Aristoteles’ten İbrahim Kalın’a, İbrahim Kalın’dan Stefan Zweig’e, oradan Farabi’ye vesaire derken abim bana sonunda şey dedi; ‘yanlış anlama kızım ama senin kötülüğünde evlenemeyecek olman’ dedi. ‘senin gibi okuyan, düşünen kızların ufku açık, düşünceleri yerli oluyor; beklentileri mal mülk olmayınca erkekler karşılayamaz oluyor’ dedi.. üzdü. bunun gerçekliğinin pek tabii farkındayım ama duymak başka oldu ki.. abime de dedim ‘napalım abi, ben de kitaplardan devam ederim o halde’ dedim. gülümsedi. artık o benim sahafçım arkadaşlar, her istanbul’a gelişimde bu abimi ziyaret edeceğim kesin.

The Impact of the British Industrial Revolution
The consequences of the British Industrial Revolution (1760-1840) were many, varied, and long-lasting. Working life in rural and urban settings was changed forever by the inventions of new machines, the spread of factories, and the decline of traditional occupations. Developments in transportation and communications meant life in the post-industrial world was more exciting and faster, with people more connected than ever before. Consumer goods became more affordable to more people, and there were more jobs for a booming population. The price to pay for progress was often a working life that was noisy, repetitive, and dangerous, while cities grew to become overcrowded, polluted, and crime-ridden.
The impact of the Industrial Revolution included:
Many new machines were invented that could do things much faster than previously or could perform entirely new tasks.
Steam power was cheaper, more reliable, and faster than more traditional power sources.
Large factories were established, creating jobs and a boom in cotton textile production, in particular.
Large engineering projects became possible like iron bridges and viaducts.
Traditional industries like hand weaving and businesses connected to stagecoaches went into terminal decline.
The cost of food and consumer goods was reduced as items were mass-produced and transportation costs decreased.
Better tools became available for manufacturers and farmers.
The coal, iron, and steel industries boomed to provide fuel and raw materials for machines to work.
The canal system was expanded but then declined.
Urbanisation accelerated as labour became concentrated around factories in towns and cities.
Cheap train travel became a possibility for all.
Demand for skilled labour, especially in textiles, decreased.
Demand for unskilled labour to operate machines and work on the railways increased.
The use of child and women labour increased.
Worker safety declined and was not reversed until the 1830s.
Trade unions were formed to protect workers' rights.
The success of mechanisation led to other countries experiencing their own industrial revolutions.
Coal Mining
Mining of tin and coal has a long history in Britain, but the arrival of the Industrial Revolution saw unprecedented activity underground to find the fuel to feed the steam-powered machines that came to dominate industry and transport. The steam-powered pump was invented to drain mines in 1712. This allowed deeper mining and so greatly increased coal production. The Watt steam engine, patented in 1769, allowed steam power to be harnessed for almost anything, and as the steam engines ran on coal, so the mining industry boomed as mechanisation swept across industries of all kinds. This phenomenon only increased with the spread of the railways from 1825 and the increase in steam-powered ships from the 1840s. Coal gas, meanwhile, was used for lighting homes and streets from 1812, and as a source of heat for private homes and cookers. Coke, that is burnt coal, was used as a fuel in the iron and steel industries, and so the demand for coal kept on growing as the Industrial Revolution rolled on.
There were four principal coal mining areas: South Wales, southern Scotland, Lancashire, and Northumberland. To get the coal to where it was needed, Britain's canal system was significantly expanded as transportation by canal was 50% cheaper than using roads. By 1830, "England and Wales had 3,876 miles in 1760" (Horn, 17). Britain produced annually just 2.5 to 3 million tons of coal in 1700, but by 1900, this figure had rocketed to 224 million tons.
