The Oxford Handbook to the History of the Book in Early Modern
England provides a rich, imaginative and also accessible guide to
the latest research in one of the most exciting areas of early
modern studies. Written by scholars working at the cutting-edge of
the subject, from the UK and North America, the volume considers
the production, reception, circulation, consumption, destruction,
loss, modification, recycling, and conservation of books from
different disciplinary perspectives. Each chapter discusses in a
lively manner the nature and role of the book in early modern
England, as well as offering critical insights on how we talk about
the history of the book. On finishing the Handbook, the reader will
not only know much more about the early modern book, but will also
have a strong sense of how and why the book as an object has been
studied, and the scope for the development of the field.
