{"product_id":"the-production-of-books-in-england-1350-1500-9781107680197","title":"The Production of Books in England 1350-1500","description":"Between roughly 1350 and 1500, the English vernacular became established as a language of literary, bureaucratic, devotional and controversial writing; metropolitan artisans formed guilds for the production and sale of books for the first time; and Gutenberg's and eventually Caxton's printed books reached their first English consumers. This book gathers the best new work on manuscript books in England made during this crucial but neglected period. Its authors survey existing research, gather intensive new evidence and develop new approaches to key topics. The chapters cover the material conditions and economy of the book trade; amateur production both lay and religious; the effects of censorship; and the impact on English book production of manuscripts and artisans from elsewhere in the British Isles and Europe. A wide-ranging and innovative series of essays, this volume is a major contribution to the history of the book in medieval England.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alexandra Gillespie\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/23\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 396\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.81d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781107680197\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eGillespie, Alexandra:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Alexandra Gillespie is Associate Professor of English at the University of Toronto.\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eWakelin, Daniel:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Daniel Wakelin is Lecturer in English at the University of Cambridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":41068450119795,"sku":"9.78111E+12","price":52.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_640f9400-8421-400f-9527-caca7bec3cf9.jpg?v=1699018521","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/the-production-of-books-in-england-1350-1500-9781107680197","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
