Description

Philosophy and the Book explores how early modern philosophers used metaphors of print, inscription, and reading to shape their ideas about knowledge and understanding. Daniel Selcer examines the philosophical impact of the print revolution across continental Europe, focusing on Descartes, Spinoza, Leibniz, and Bayle whilst also discussing Valla, Gassendi, Hobbes, Lamy, and other thinkers. This study reveals how the explosion of print technology and textual distribution fundamentally altered the philosophical imagination during the early modern period. By tracing key figures and concepts through philosophical texts, the book demonstrates the deep connection between material practices of inscription and the development of early modern thought, offering scholars and students a fresh perspective on how books themselves became central to philosophical practice and argumentation.
