This text takes a look at early modern England and the creative and commercial forces in which print culture was formed and its many arenas - commercial, intellectual, political and individual. It includes detailed information on booksellers shops, the Royal Society, paper manufactories and type foundaries. Also featured are replications of the bitter disputes between authors and printers, printers and booksellers and clerics and individuals as they debate and resolve the meaning and rights attached to the creation of ideas, their appearance in written form and then in print, and the opportunity to sell, buy, and read printed work. Focusing on the interplay between the scientific and print revolutions and on their roles, both complementary and antagonistic, the text looks at production and dissemination of knowledge. Print also being used to manipulate those findings for political, religious or idealogical reasons.

15. State of emergency [1996]
- Salas, Floyd, 1931-
- Houston, Tex. : Arte Publico Press, 1996.
- Description
- Book — 396 p. ; 23 cm.
- Summary
-
SET IN THE 1960s, the era of campus revolts, war protests, drugs and free love, State of Emergency follows the frenetic odyssey of Roger, a self-styled radical professor attempting to write an expose of government and military endeavors to annihilate dissidents like him. Pursued by agents who would still his pen and accompanied by Penny, his former student and now his 1ong-suffering lover, they head for Europe and northern Africa. Finding refuge among their brethren in the counter-culture of various countries, Roger nevertheless feels the enemy is close upon his heels. Everywhere he turns, shadows lurk that threaten to destroy him both emotionally and physically. Are the dangers real or an imaginary symptom of the paranoia created by the drug culture of the 1960s? Floyd Salas has successfully created a philosophical and psychological thriller based on an unsettling chapter in recent history, when idealism was pitted against a totalitarian mentality that cloaked democracy in hypocrisy.
