Document Details : Title: 'Poezijlust en vriendenliefd' Subtitle: Literaire sociabiliteit in handschrift en druk na 1600 Author(s): MOSER, Nelleke Journal: Spiegel der Letteren Volume: 49 Issue: 2 Date: 2007 Pages: 247-264 DOI: 10.2143/SDL.49.2.2023446 Abstract : Recent studies have demonstrated that manuscript culture flourished in Great Britain, France, and Spain until well into the eighteenth century. The role of the manuscript in the Dutch Republic has not yet received full attention, but in the Netherlands as well, early modern literary life depended largely on the exchange of texts in manuscript. By means of three different sources: a printed miscellany, The Dutch Helicon (1610), a diary by David Beck (1624) and a manuscript miscellany by David de Moor (accomplished around 1632), I intend to show how manuscripts functioned as a means of maintaining friendships that were based on a shared love of literature. |
