In the colonial period Bibles, primers, catechisms, and hornbooks were offered for young. Women have always to some extent been readers in America, but it was not until the nineteenth century that they experienced a reading “revolution.” Literacy for women.Ĭhildren have always been little readers making up their own market for books. From town criers proclaiming the news off printed broadsides to urban landscapes littered with advertisements. Reading in public is a time-honored tradition. The early-nineteenth-century prison reform movement, in its effort not merely to warehouse criminals but also to educate them, resulted in the creation. Private libraries and bookstores have existed.

Note: The images for "Part I: The Exhibit - Three Centuries of Reading Places" are not included in this section. If viewers of this exhibition have an image they would like to add, they are welcome to visit the Blog for A Place of Reading: Addenda for an opportunity to contribute and/or view newly-found images. This bank is the start of an ongoing conversation about seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth century illustrations of reading. The following image bank, although it is in no way comprehensive, offers up a few such images of reading places for our readers’ edification and enjoyment. The previous section illuminates popular reading spaces broadly conceived within the confines of a historical narrative, but images also exist of reading in specific locations, among certain groups, or even with specific mental states.
