The Talk of the Town: Information and Community in Sixteenth-Century Switzerland - The Past and Present Book Series
Roth, Carla (Lecturer, Department of History, Lecturer, Department of History, University of Basle)
The Talk of the Town explores everyday communication in a sixteenth-century small town and the role it played in the circulation of information across and within early modern communities, using the notebooks of the St Gall linen trader Johannes Rütiner to gain unusual insights into an oral world, and show how conversation could shape society.
