Bringing together a broad range of case studies written by
a team of international scholars, this Concise Companion
establishes how manuscripts and printed books met the needs of
two different approaches to literacy in the early modern
period.
* Features essays illustrating the particular ways a manuscript
and a printed book reflect the different emphases of an elite,
private and an egalitarian, public culture, both of which account
for the literary achievements of the Renaissance
* Includes wide-ranging essays, from printing the Gospels in
Arabic to a contemporary reconceptualization of Shakespeare's
Titus Andronicus
* Increases accessibility through a rubric organized around
archival and manuscript studies; the provenance of texts and
the authority of editions; and studies of genre, religion and
literary history
* Announces the recovery of archival documents, which in
some instances are over four hundred years old
* Places translations of Milton's Latin, Greek, and Italian
alongside the original texts to increase accessibility for a wide
audience of students and scholars
* Provides an invaluable platform for highlighting on-going
attention to the history of the book and its corollary subjects of
reading and writing practices in the 1500s and 1600s
