Description

Spoken Word and Social Practice: Orality in Europe (1400-1700) is a scholarly work from Brill designed for historians and literary scholars. This volume explores the presence of oral culture within both literary and non-literary sources from the late medieval and early modern periods. By examining the relationship between spoken words and written texts, the book tracks the voices of diverse social groups, including women, princes, magistrates, villagers, and mariners. It examines how mental habits of a speaking world shaped written works and how writing influenced speech. This research provides a deep look into the oral elements embedded in the texts of the 1400-1700 era, offering a way to recapture the sounds and social practices of the past.
