This volume addresses one of the most urgent and topical questions in early modern history: how did European authorities use a new medium with such tremendous potential? The eighteen contributors develop new perspectives on the relationship between the rise of print and the changing relationships between subjects and rulers by analysing print's role in early modern bureaucracy, the techniques of printed propaganda, genres and strategies of state communication. While print is often still thought of as an emancipating and destabilizing force of change in early modern societies, the resulting picture shows how instrumental print was in strengthening existing power structures [Editeur]Sujet - Nom commun: Imprimerie -- Europe 1500-1800 | Imprimerie -- Aspect politique -- Europe 1500-1800 | Communication en politique -- Europe 1500-1800 | Religion et littérature -- Europe 1500-1800 Sujet - Nom géographique: Europe
