DESCRIPTION:Few have noticed that what we call 'Georgian culture' was most
 ly\nhatched inside the square quarter-mile or so of eighteenth-century Lon
 don that was centred on the Piazza of Covent Garden. The nation's leading 
 artists\, writers\, dramatists all lived there. They knew and competed wit
 h each other\, and engaged with low life as well as high. The paper shows 
 how artistic creativity indispensably drew on and illuminated the experien
 ces of living in the world's first cultural 'Bohemia'.\n
