The Work of Print: Authorship and the EnglishText Trades, 1660-1760
Maruca, Lisa M. (Associate Professor of Interdisciplinary Studies, Interdisciplinary Studies)
Drawing on contemporary accounts of those involved in the trade - printers, booksellers, publishers, and distributors, this work describes the labours through which literature was produced: both the physical labour of making books and the underlying cultural work performed by a set of ideologies about who counted as a maker of texts.
