While theatrical performance traditionally defined literary culture, print steadily gained ground, becoming more prevalent and enabling the formation of various networks of writers, readers, and consumers of books.In conjunction with an evolving print culture, seventeenth-century England experienced a rise of political instability and religious dissent, the closing of the theatres, and the emergence of a middle class. Elizabeth Sauer examines how this played out in the nation?s book and print industry with an emphasis on performative writings, their materiality, reception, and their extra-judicial function. ?Paper-contestations? and Textual Communities in England challenges traditional readings of literary history, offers new insights into drama and its transgression of boundaries, and proposes a fresh approach to the politics of consensus and contestation that animated seventeenth-century culture and that distinguishes current scholarly debates about this period. 410 0$aStudies in book and print culture. 606 $aLiterature and society$zEngland$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aPolitics and literature$zEngland$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aBooks and reading$zEngland$xHistory$y17th century 607 $aEngland$xIntellectual life$y17th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLiterature and society$xHistory 615 0$aPolitics and literature$xHistory 615 0$aBooks and reading$xHistory 676 $a820.9355 700 $aSauer$b Elizabeth$f1964-$0885225 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456113603321 996 $aPaper-contestations' and textual communities in England, 1640-1675$92459552 997 $aUNINA
