Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The fourteen essays that comprise Collections in Context: The Organization of Knowledge and Community in Europe interrogate questions posed by French, Flemish, English, and Italian collections of all sorts-libraries as a whole, anthologi…es and miscellanies assembled within a single manuscript or printed book, and even illustrated ivory boxes.Collecting became an increasingly important activity during the fourteenth through seventeenth centuries, when the decreased cost of producing books made ownership available to more people. But the act of collecting is never neutral: it gathers information, orders material (especially linear texts), and prioritizes everything-in short, collecting both organizes and comments on knowledge.

Thus, Collections in Context offers unusual insights into how collecting both produced knowledge and built community in early modern Europe.
