{"product_id":"manuscripts-and-printed-books-in-emma-cayley-9781781382691","title":"Manuscripts and Printed Books in Europe 1350-1550: Packaging, Presentation and Consumption","description":"This collaborative collection considers the packaging, presentation and consumption of medieval manuscripts and early printed books in Europe 1350-1550. It showcases innovative research on the history of the book from a range of established and younger scholars from the US and Europe in the fields of English and French Studies, History, Music, and Art History. The collection falls naturally into three sections: Packaging and Presentation: The physical context of the manuscript and printed book including its binding, visual presentation and internal organization, Consumers: Producers, Owners, and Readers, Consuming the Text: The experience of the audience(s) for books These three strands are interdependent, and highlight the materiality of the manuscript or printed book as a consumable, focusing on its 'consumability' in the sense of its packaging and presentation, its consumers, and on the act of consumption in the sense of reading and reception or literal decay.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Emma Cayley, Susan Powell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1781382697\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781781382691\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Liverpool University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEmma Cayley\u003c\/strong\u003e is Senior Lecturer in French and Head of Modern Languages at the University of Exeter. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSusan Powell\u003c\/strong\u003e holds a Chair in Medieval Texts and Culture in the School of Languages and Social Sciences at the University of Salford.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Emma Cayley","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44077300678911,"sku":"9781781382691","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_89c6162d-0ec5-451e-9100-33cd0d6e09f1.jpg?v=1685469255","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/manuscripts-and-printed-books-in-emma-cayley-9781781382691","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
