A new life for ‘British Printed Images to 1700’

The history of ‘the unruly sort of clowns’ and other early modern peculiarities from a post by Laura Sangha who is Associate Professor in Early Modern History at the University of Exeter.

This post introduces the new mini-series Visual Culture in early modern England. Guest posts in the mini-series will be published over the course of the next month – links will be added as the post are published. The series celebrates the re-launch of the vital online primary source collection ‘British Printed Images to 1700’. It hopes to encourage use of the BPI archive and to promote conversation about the deployment of visual sources in the study of the past more broadly.
