Book The History of the Book in the West  1455   1700

Download or read book The History of the Book in the West 1455 1700 written by Ian Gadd and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning with one of the crucial technological breakthroughs of Western history - the development of moveable type by Johann Gutenberg - The History of the Book in the West 1455-1700 covers the period that saw the growth and consolidation of the printed book as a significant feature of Western European culture and society. The volume collects together seventeen key articles, written by leading scholars during the past five decades, that together survey a wide range of topics, such as typography, economics, regulation, bookselling, and reading practices. Books, whether printed or in manuscript, played a major role in the religious, political, and intellectual upheavals of the period, and understanding how books were made, distributed, and encountered provides valuable new insights into the history of Western Europe in the fifteenth, sixteenth, and seventeenth centuries.

Book Good Wives

    Book Details:
  • Author : Laurel Thatcher Ulrich
  • Publisher : Vintage
  • Release : 2010-12-29
  • ISBN : 0307772977
  • Pages : 337 pages

Download or read book Good Wives written by Laurel Thatcher Ulrich and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2010-12-29 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This enthralling work of scholarship strips away abstractions to reveal the hidden--and not always stoic--face of the "goodwives" of colonial America. In these pages we encounter the awesome burdens--and the considerable power--of a New England housewife's domestic life and witness her occasional forays into the world of men. We see her borrowing from her neighbors, loving her husband, raising--and, all too often, mourning--her children, and even attaining fame as a heroine of frontier conflicts or notoriety as a murderess. Painstakingly researched, lively with scandal and homely detail, Good Wives is history at its best.

Book American Artifacts of Personal Adornment  1680 1820

Download or read book American Artifacts of Personal Adornment 1680 1820 written by Carolyn L. White and published by Rowman Altamira. This book was released on 2005 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bracelets, buckles, buttons, and beads. Clasps, combs, and chains. Items of personal adornment fill museum collections and are regularly uncovered in historical period archaeological excavations. But until the publication of this comprehensive volume, there has been no basic guide to help curators, registrars, historians, archaeologists, or collectors identify this class of objects from colonial and early republican America. Carolyn L. White helps the reader understand and interpret these artifacts, discussing their source, manufacture, materials, function, and value in early American life. She uses them as a window on personal identity, showing how gender, age, ethnicity, and class were often displayed through the objects worn. White draws not only on the items themselves, but uses their portrayal in art, contemporary writings, advertisements, and business records to assess their meaning to their owners. A reference volume for the shelf of anyone interested in early American material culture. Over 100 illustrations and tables.

Book Society and Culture in Early Modern England

Download or read book Society and Culture in Early Modern England written by David Cressy and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The common theme of this selection of articles by David Cressy, published over the last twenty-five years, is the linkage of elite and popular culture and the participation of ordinary people in the central events of their age. The collection also traces a development in historical style and method, from quantitative applications using statistics to qualitative telling of tales. Seven essays under the heading 'Opportunities' explore problems of education, literacy and cultural attainment within the gendered and hierarchically ordered society of Elizabeth and Stuart England. Eight more under the heading 'Passages' examine social and cultural interactions, kinship, migration, community celebrations, and rituals in the life-cycle. The collection brings together a coherent body of research that is much cited in current scholarship and continues to shape the agenda for the social and cultural history of early modern England.
