description | We understand much about the ways in which texts and the knowledge they contained were transmitted in the early modern period. But we understand less about how the transmission of texts and knowledge related to other kinds of transmission. Families helped give social status to their members by passing on tangible goods (wealth and property) and less tangible ones (such as name and reputation).

The attempt draws gratefully on Stephen Bamforth’s pioneering work on François. |
