- catalog abstract ""This innovative work of historical sociology locates the origins of modern democratic discourse in the emergent culture of printing in early-modern England. For David Zaret, the key to the rise of a democratic public sphere was the impact of this culture of printing on the secrecy and privilege that shrouded political decisions in seventeenth-century England.
