She charts how the deployment of particular technologies of vision?the telescope and the camera obscura?were adapted to comply with evolving notions of objectivity, censorship, and civic awareness. Detailing the differences between various types of printed and manuscript news and the importance of regional, national, and religious distinctions, Evening News emphasizes the ways in which information moved between high and low genres and across geographical and confessional boundaries in the first decades of the seventeenth century. 410 0$aMaterial texts. 606 $aJournalism$zEurope$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aNewspaper publishing$xEffect of technological innovations on$zEurope$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aOptics$xSocial aspects$zEurope$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aAstronomy$xSocial aspects$zEurope$xHistory$y17th century 607 $aEurope$xIntellectual life$y17th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aJournalism$xHistory 615 0$aNewspaper publishing$xEffect of technological innovations on$xHistory 615 0$aOptics$xSocial aspects$xHistory 615 0$aAstronomy$xSocial aspects$xHistory 676 $a070.9/032 700 $aReeves$b Eileen Adair$01031053 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464703703321 996 $aEvening news$92470044 997 $aUNINA
