Description
This collection profiles understudied figures in the book and print trades of the seventeenth century.
With an equal balance between women and men, it intervenes in the history of the trades, emphasising the broad range of material, cultural, and ideological work these people undertook.
It offers a biographical introduction to each figure, placing them in their social, professional, and institutional settings.
The collection considers varied print trade roles including that of the printer, publisher, paper-maker, and bookseller, as well as several specific trade networks and numerous textual forms.
The biographies draw on extensive new archival research, with details of key sources for further study on each figure.
Chronologically organised, this Element offers a primer both on numerous individual figures, and on the tribulations and innovations of the print trade in the century of revolution.
