Reseña del libro "The Great Exchange: Making the News in Early Modern Europe (en Inglés)"
Highly ambitious and impressive a rich multifaceted and thought provoking book Noel Malcolm Times Literary SupplementNews moves It is a battle a scandal a disaster It is a letter a newspaper a proclamation News is a material thing but also something between us something we take into us and feel This book tells the story of news from the sunset of the Middle Ages to the rise of mass media in modern times It begins in Renaissance Italy with the envoys and merchants who drew in and disseminated news across Europe establishing its channels and conventions Following the beat of news around the continent it uncovers a vast invisible network traversing the boundaries of geography and politics religion and language Joad Raymond Wren allows the reader to see news of the battle of Lepanto the siege of Vienna spreading around this network in real time Dispelling the tenacious myth that news was until the printing press scarce and unreliable and until the telegraph slow and provincial he opens up windows onto a world buzzing with news from faraway News brought the distant closer and provided the means for Europe to know itself The continent was for a time held together by that most essential of human acts communication
