A series of authoritative essays written by experts in the field explores the full range of material culture in the long eighteenth century, raising crucial questions about notions of property and invention, homely and commercial lives. The book also includes a series of well-illustrated exhibits, a startling and provocative assemblage of objects from the Enlightenment world, each accompanied by expert commentaries. The collection of essays and exhibits is the result of collaborative debate by scholars from Europe and north America, who have together worked on the cross-disciplinary importance of material history in making sense of how past society was fundamentally transformed through the world of goods. . 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in the Enlightenment, Romanticism and Cultures of Print,$x2634-6524 606 $aLiterature, Modern$y18th century 606 $aLiterature$xHistory and criticism 606 $aBooks$xHistory 606 $aEuropean literature 606 $aEighteenth-Century Literature 606 $aLiterary History 606 $aHistory of the Book 606 $aEuropean Literature 615 0$aLiterature, Modern 615 0$aLiterature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aBooks$xHistory. 615 0$aEuropean literature. 615 14$aEighteenth-Century Literature. 615 24$aLiterary History. 615 24$aHistory of the Book. 615 24$aEuropean Literature. 676 $a809.033 700 $aCraciun$b Adriana$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0690732 702 $aCraciun$b Adriana$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSchaffer$b Simon$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255235003321 996 $aThe Material Cultures of Enlightenment Arts and Sciences$92520260 997 $aUNINA
