This collection looks at the 'economic' in the early modern period and its literature and drama, conceiving of it broadly and posing questions such as: what was an early modern ‘transaction’ and how was it changing? How did economies of the marketplace come into dialogue with economies of representation? What do literary engagements bring into view in a way that a history of the period’s economic developments does not? And, crucially, how was knowledge implicated in these processes?  weiterlesen
