Description: Regulating Knowledge in an Entangled World uses case studies from the sixteenth to the eighteenth centuries to study knowledge transfer in early modern knowledge societies. In the early modern period the scale intensity and reach of exchange exploded. This volume develops a historicised understanding of knowledge transfer to shed new light on these fundamental changes. By looking at the preconditions of knowledge transfer it shifts the focus from the objects circulating to the interactions by which they circulate and the way actors cement their relations. The novelty of this approach shows how rules and regulations were enablers of knowledge circulation rather than impediments. The chapters identify changing patterns of knowledge transfer in cases such as sixteenth - century Venice the Spanish Empire in the Americas continental Habsburg early seventeenth - century Dutch at sea and the Offices of the Catholic Church. Through the perspective of regulating this volume advances the historiography of knowledge circulation by forging a new combination of histories of circulation and of institutions. By bringing together historians from intellectual history economic history book history the history of science religion art and material culture this volume is useful for students and scholars interested in early modern knowledge societies and changing patterns of knowledge transfer.
