Blaak.Until recently, historians of reading have concentrated on book ownership and trying to map out a history of who read what. The reading experience has been a subject more difficult to research. As has been pointed out before, egodocuments can be valuable sources in this case. Following this lead, Literacy in Everyday Life focuses upon four early modern Dutch diaries in which readers document their daily life and in which they recount their reading. In the analysis, other ways in which these four readers communicated are also addressed, especially speech and writing. This book therefore provides an insight into the possible uses of literacy and the interaction between the printed, written and spoken word in the early modern Dutch Republic.Egodocuments and history series ;v. 2.Dutch prose literatureHistory and criticismDutch literature1500-1800History and criticismBooks and reading in literatureLiteracyNetherlandsHistory17th centuryLiteracyNetherlandsHistory18th centuryBooks and readingNetherlandsHistory17th centuryBooks and readingNetherlandsHistory18th centuryDutch prose literatureHistory and criticism.Dutch literatureHistory and criticism.Books and reading in literature.LiteracyHistoryLiteracyHistoryBooks and readingHistoryBooks and readingHistory839.31/3030902.01bclBlaak Jeroen1682778Jackson Beverley879215MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910815717903321Literacy in everyday life4053120UNINA
