 Keizer, Joost - Richardson, Todd M. (eds.), The Transformation of Vernacular Expression in Early Modern Arts, Leiden - Boston, E. J. Brill (Intersections, 19), 2012, xx + 404 pp. 
ResumIn response to the dominance of Latin as the language of intellectual debate in early modern Europe, regional centres started to develop a new emphasis on vernacular languages and forms of cultural expression. This book shows that the local acts as a mark of distinction in the early modern cultural context. -- "Interdisciplinary in scope, essays examine vernacular strands in the visual arts, architecture and literature from the fourteenth to the seventeenth centuries" (p. 4).
