Trivializations: Chapbooks, 1470-1800(1)

Categories: story.

The invention of printing subjected the existing field of histories—whether allegedly true, romantic

or novel—to a process of trivialization and commercialization. Romances had circulated in lavishly

ornamented manuscripts to be read out to audiences. The printed book allowed a comparatively

inexpensive alternative for the special purpose of silent reading. Abridgments of ancient historians,

popular medieval histories of knights, stories of comical heroes, religious legends and collections of

jests and fables were the principal historical subject matter.[24] Offering suspense and stories the

audience could accept as allegedly true, even if they were fantastic and unlikely, the new books

reached the households of urban citizens and of country merchants who visited the cities as traders.

Literacy spread among the urban populations of Europe due to a number of factors:[25] Women of

wealthier households had learned to read in the 14th and 15th centuries and had become

customers of religious devotion. The Protestant Reformation enkindled propaganda and press wars

that lasted into the 18th century. Broadsheets and newspapers became the new media of public

information. The early modern customers would not necessarily be able to write, yet even writing

skills spread among apprentices and women of the middle classes. Business owners were forced to

adopt methods of written book-keeping and accounting. The personal letter became a favorite

medium of communication among 17th-century men and women as many Dutch period paintings

show. The prefaces, the escapist subject matter, and a number of satires on the early consumption of

fiction show that cheap histories were especially popular among apprentices and younger urban

readers of both sexes.[26] Norris’ and Bettesworth’s 1719 edition of The Seven Famous Champions

of Christendom—itself a mixture of legend and romance—ended with a look on the entire spectrum

of books the publishers would provide in their shops on London Bridge, a famous location where

those who left the city provided themselves with reading materials:
