Abstract:
This chapter recounts the struggles of publishers, printers, editors, and contributors to American magazines of the national period. It shows how the magazine occupies a liminal place at best in the history of print in the early republic. The book and the newspaper dominate far more space in the story of the print's rise, and rightly so, as the magazine seems dominated by random posturing, by armchair moralists with neoclassical pseudonyms offering their opinion on everything from fashion to dueling. It is no wonder that modern readers have favored two forms—novel and newspaper—whose genealogi

Abstract:
Lefèvre described his own mathematical turn as a kind of conversion. This chapter explains what motivated his turn to mathematics, considering the place of mathematics in fifteenth-century Paris in relation to court politics and Lefèvre’s own connections to Italian humanists. But more importantly, Lefèvre’s attitude to learning and the propaedeutic value of mathematics drew on the context of late medieval spiritual reform, with its emphasis on conversion and care of the soul. In particular, Lefèvre’s turn to university reform seems to have responded to the works of Ramon Lull, alongside the de

Abstract:
Chapter 5 begins with the early 1490s rise of the Aldine Press at Venice and De Aetna’s place in relation to Aldo Manuzio’s print experimentation through the 1501 introduction of his libelli portatiles (“portable little books”). The interaction between theme and typographic form in De Aetna, between Pietro’s Etna adventure and the novelty of Manuzio’s own print venture, unites author and printer in a mutually reinforcing mode of self-display and aesthetic alignment. Bernardo Bembo complicates this vision of type form as a physical picturing of Pietro in particular – unless Bernardo is seen to

Abstract:
Ivan N. Petrov’s The Development of the Bulgarian Literary Language: From Incunabula to First Grammars, Late Fifteenth–Early Seventeenth Century examines the history of the first printed Cyrillic books and their role in the development of the Bulgarian literary language. In the literary culture of the Southern Slavs, especially the Bulgarians, the period that began at the end of the fifteenth century and covered the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries is often seen as a foreshadowing of the pre-national era of modern times. In particular, the centuries-old manuscript tradition was gradually re

Abstract:
This article considers whether the activity that we recognize as criticism existed in the literary culture of early Tudor England. Before the appearance of formal poetic defenses and literary treatises in English (an Elizabethan phenomenon associated with Sir Philip Sidney and George Puttenham), English vernacular culture of the early sixteenth century seems to have been devoid of a fully fledged poetics or literary theory. Yet the composite evidence of printed prefaces, various endeavors to translate classical rhetorical terminology, and poetic practice itself in these early decades reveals a

Abstract:
The period of the Renaissance witnessed an extraordinary proliferation of miraculous events in Italy. Many of these miracles were connected to images of the Virgin Mary that were seen to weep, move, or speak out. In turn, these miraculous images acquired a reputation for helping the laity and were often called upon in times of crisis. Cults also grew up around miracle-working saints and printed accounts served to boost the fame of local shrines and pilgrimage sites. Making use of extensive visual and textual evidence, this chapter points to the many ways in which the Virgin and saints interven

The last several decades have seen the emergence of academically rigorous textual criticism of the Book of Mormon. This scholarly development has largely been based on a detailed analysis of the two earliest manuscripts and twenty of the most significant printed editions. Royal Skousen, a linguist at Brigham Young University, has been the driving force behind these efforts, which have culminated in the publication of multi-volume textual commentaries, photographical and typographical facsimiles of the manuscripts, and a reconstructed earliest version.

Abstract:
The scintillating grid was first presented at the European Conference on Visual Perception in Tübingen in 1995. At the time, the prevailing explanation of the Hermann grid illusion was in terms of the arrangement of the receptive fields on the retina. The minor modification of having a grey instead of a white grid with white dots at the intersections produced a strikingly new and powerful illusion. Instead of the white dots, dark black dots are seen to “blink” and appear even darker in intensity than the black printer’s ink of the square. They then disappear again to reappear immediately somew

In this chapter I explore the processes by which architects collected the material that was essential to their performance as intellectually driven designers of buildings. Central figures in this chapter are architects and agents whose collecting practices have been preserved in the historical record. They include Robert Hooke, Alexander Edward, William Talman, and his son John. I will examine the various media—printed, graphic, textual, and visual—that these figures used to obtain knowledge of the appropriate forms of architecture. I will also explore how they acquired this material. Finally

Abstract:
Church authorities recognized that the nuns needed some opportunity for appropriate recreation, so allowed them to perform sacred or moral theatrical works for themselves. This chapter also refutes, however, hypotheses put forth by other scholars that printed plays dedicated to nuns can be seen as a repertoire of works they performed. The nuns often violated the rules, performing secular plays and even operas, not only for themselves, but also for an audience of the public in the parlor. Similarly, rules entirely forbade the performance of theatrical or concerts in the parlors of nunneries by

Reflective practice takes on a particular shape in classical music. The aim of this chapter is to identify some elements of classical music that distinguish it from other genres of music, and to consider how these elements may affect the kind of reflection in which classical musicians—and classical musicians-in-the-making—engage. The chapter, which is partly based on student practice diaries and interviews with professional musicians, argues that the distinguishing elements of classical music performance are a focus on interpretation, interest in following the composer’s intentions, concern ab

Abstract When modernist poets rejected meter at the beginning of the twentieth century, they seemed to reject something at the heart of poetry: sound. Yet meter was only one of the many sound media that poets on either side of 1900 used to structure their poems. As new technologies like the phonograph unsettled print modes of representing sound, language, and voice, poets likewise pluralized the sonic basis, or “prosody,” of their work. Enlisting talking birds and printed ballads, illuminated manuscripts and books shaped like vinyl LPs, poets in Britain and America mixed new media with old to
