Description
This essay discusses the relationship between Protestantism and printing in early modern England. It shows that Protestantism underwent a rapid diversification in terms of the types of religious works published and the target audience.
This is the first study of the full range of Protestant publications from the Reformation to the start of the Evangelical Revival. Based on a sample of over seven hundred best-selling titles of the period, it demonstrates a rapid diversification of the religious works printed and of the readerships at which they were targeted by canny publishers, and also highlights the growing variety of "Protestantisms" then on offer.
