Graduate Seminar: Martha Feldman

Print Culture in the Early Modern City

Martha Feldman, University of Chicago

This course examined new questions concerning the dialectics of early modern print culture in the production and reception of vernacular letters and music.  It concentrated on relations among writing, printing, reading or listening, and performing in the early phase of mass production during the mid-sixteenth century.  The active print culture of Venice served as the main basis for developing theoretical frameworks for the course.
