| الملخص: | In this volume Adam Fox brings together a collection of his essays on aspects of oral, scribal and printed communication across early modern Britain. These studies explore the relationship between spoken and written transmission, the processes and products of information gathering, and the creation and consumption of street literature. Focussing on various parts of the British Isles between the sixteenth and the eighteenth centuries, they illuminate the nature of popular culture, the transition to a more literate society, and the engagement with ephemeral texts in 'the handpress world'. |
