{"product_id":"revolutionary-ink","title":"Revolutionary Ink","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn Revolutionary Ink, Mark J. Noonan explores the careers of New York printers whose presses disseminated Enlightenment ideals that fueled the American Revolution and framed the political debates of the early republic. Long overshadowed by the celebrated authors whose works they produced, printers William Bradford, John Peter Zenger, James Parker, Thomas Greenleaf and others helmed presses that provoked civic engagement, cultivated an appreciation for the arts and sciences, and defended press liberty. The book also examines the equally revolutionary work of their wives, who assisted with and sometimes ran their husband's presses. Throughout the narrative, Noonan addresses the discrepancy between revolutionary rhetoric and practice, and argues that to grasp New York's early print history is to confront the paradox of the Anglo-American Enlightenment: its profound advancements alongside the denial of universal human rights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides an in-depth discussion of the materiality of early American prints and newspapers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUncovers the careers of early New York printers and the important work they produced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCalls for a fresh examination of political ideals reflected in the works of early American printers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press Bookshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56742032015746,"sku":"9781009700184","price":20.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0475\/2031\/7597\/files\/9781009700184i.jpg?v=1782970992","url":"https:\/\/www.cambridgebookshop.co.uk\/products\/revolutionary-ink","provider":"Cambridge University Press Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
