| Zusammenfassung: | Renaissance readers perceived the print book as both a thing and a medium - a thing that could be broken or reassembled, and a visual medium that had the power to reflect, transform, or deceive. At the same historical moment that print books remediated the visual and material structures of manuscript and oral rhetoric, the relationship between vision and perception was fundamentally called into question. Investigating this crisis of perception, Pauline Reid argues that the visual crisis that suffuses early modern English thought also imbricates sixteenth and seventeenth century print materials. These vision troubles in turn influenced how early modern books and readers interacted. Platonic, Aristotelian, and empirical models of sight vied with one another in a culture where vision had a tenuous relationship to external reality. Through situating early modern books' design elements, such as woodcuts, engravings, page borders, and layouts, as important rhetorical components of the text, Reading by Design articulates how the early modern book responded to epistemological crises of perception and competing theories of sight |

Jul 2019) Renaissance readers perceived the print book as both a thing and a medium - a thing that could be broken or reassembled, and a visual medium that had the power to reflect, transform, or deceive. At the same historical moment that print books remediated the visual and material structures of manuscript and oral rhetoric, the relationship between vision and perception was fundamentally called into question. Investigating this crisis of perception, Pauline Reid argues that the visual crisis that suffuses early modern English thought also imbricates sixteenth and seventeenth century print materials. These vision troubles in turn influenced how early modern books and readers interacted. Platonic, Aristotelian, and empirical models of sight vied with one another in a culture where vision had a tenuous relationship to external reality. Through situating early modern books' design elements, such as woodcuts, engravings, page borders, and layouts, as important rhetorical components of the text, Reading by Design articulates how the early modern book responded to epistemological crises of perception and competing theories of sight In English Geschichte 1550-1700 gnd rswk-swf DISCOUNT-B. early modern literature epistemology history of the book media new materialism phenomenology rhetoric visuality LITERARY CRITICISM / Books & Reading bisacsh Books and reading England History 16th century Books and reading England History 17th century Early printed books England 16th century Early printed books England 17th century English literature Early modern, 1500-1700 History and criticism Literature publishing England 16th century Literature publishing England 17th century Visual perception History 16th century Visual perception History 17th century Illustration (DE-588)4123412-1 gnd rswk-swf Layout (DE-588)4269003-1 gnd rswk-swf Buchgestaltung (DE-588)4146814-4 gnd rswk-swf England (DE-588)4014770-8 gnd rswk-swf England (DE-588)4014770-8 g Buchgestaltung (DE-588)4146814-4 s Illustration (DE-588)4123412-1 s Layout (DE-588)4269003-1 s Geschichte 1550-1700 z 1\p DE-604 https://doi.org/10.3138/9781487511623 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
