Collecting became an increasingly important activity during the fourteenth through seventeenth centuries when the decreased cost of producing books made ownership available to more people. But the act of collecting is never neutral: it gathers information orders material especially linear texts and prioritizes everything—in short collecting both organizes and comments on knowledge. Moreover the context of a collection must reveal something about identity but whose That of the compiler The reader or viewer The donor The patron With essays by a wide array of international scholars Collections in Context demonstrates that the very act of collecting inevitably imposes some kind of relationship among what might otherwise be naively thought of as disparate elements and simultaneously exposes something about the community that created and used the collection. Thus Collections in Context offers unusual insights into how collecting both produced knowledge and built community in early modern Europe. . 2011. 0814211712 . Ohio State University Press hardcover
