Changes in English Renaissance technical books provide a new, and as yet largely unexplored means of viewing the Renaissance and the dramatic changes that emerged during the 1475-1640 period, the first years of English printing.Baywood's Technical Communications SeriesTechnical correspondenceEnglandHistoryEnglish prose literatureEarly modern, 1500-1700History and criticismTechnical writingHistoryRenaissanceEnglandTechnical correspondenceHistory.English prose literatureHistory and criticism.Technical writingHistory.Renaissance808/.0666Tebeaux Elizabeth1123854MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910969739103321The emergence of a tradition4467779UNINA
