Where Do The Images in The Philosophical Transactions Go?
This project examines the production and reception of the early issues (1665-1700) of the Philosophical Transactions
of the Royal Society of London by studying the movement of visual material produced for the journal. The research approaches the
complicated printing history of the Philosophical Transactions by examining the placement of the plates within copies of the journal
to better understand how readers (and binders) created relationships between text and image.
