‘In Memoriam R. Mankin – The Circulation of Knowledge’ – Séminaire commun du Larca

Posted on December 7, 2020

For this last seminar session of the year, we will be listening to L. Ferlier, B. Miyamoto and J. Hopes present the newly published volume Forms, Formats, and the Circulation of Knowledge, British Printscape’s Innovations, 1688-1832 (Brill 2020). The speakers will chart the British networks in the early modern book trade and explore how print circulated information in a multitude of sizes and media (prospectuses, blank forms, periodicals, pamphlets, globes, games, ephemera etc…), to highlight the disorderly knowledge market and discuss the digital afterlives of early modern prints.
