News is defined partly by movement and circulation, yet histories of news have been written overwhelmingly within national contexts.  This volume of essays explores the notion that early modern European news, in all its manifestations – manuscript, print, and oral – is fundamentally transnational.  These 37 essays investigate the language, infrastructure, and circulation of news across Europe. They range from the 15th to the 18th centuries, and from the Ottoman Empire to the Americas, focussing on the mechanisms of transmission, the organisation of networks, the spread of forms and modes of news communication, and the effects of their translation into new locales and languages.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Every news historian should first study this volume before continuing with his or her own work.” - Rosanne Baars, University of Amsterdam, in: Sixteenth Century Journal 48:2 (2017), pp. 494-496\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgements List of Figures and Tables  Places and Dates  Abbreviations and Other Conventions  Notes on Contributors   1 News Networks in Early Modern Europe Joad Raymond and Noah Moxham  PART 1 Networks  2 European Postal Networks Nikolaus Schobesberger, Paul Arblaster, Mario Infelise, André Belo, Noah Moxham, Carmen Espejo and Joad Raymond  3 The Lexicons of Early Modern News Paul Arblaster, André Belo, Carmen Espejo, Stéphane Haffemayer, Mario Infelise, Noah Moxham, Joad Raymond and Nikolaus Schobesberger  4 News Networks: Putting the ‘News’ and ‘Networks’ Back in  Joad Raymond  5 Maps versus Networks Ruth Ahnert  6 International News Flows in the Seventeenth Century: Problems and Prospects  Brendan Dooley  7 The Papal Network: How the Roman Curia Was Informed about South-Eastern Europe, the Ottoman Empire and the Mediterranean (1645–1669)  Johann Petitjean  8 The Iberian Position in European News Networks: A Methodological Approach  Javier Díaz Noci  9 Mapping the Fuggerzeitungen: The Geographical Issues of an Information Network Nikolaus Schobesberger  PART 2 Modes  10 The History of a Word: Gazette  Mario Infelise  11 International Relations: Spanish, Italian, French, English and German Printed Single Event Newsletters Prior to Renaudot’s Gazette  Henry Ettinghausen  12 War News in Early Modern Milan: The Birth and the Shaping of Printed News Pamphlets  Massimo Petta  13 Elizabethan Diplomatic Networks and the Spread of News  Tracey A.
