Beschreibung des Forschungskontexts: Susanna Burghartz, Christof Jeggle und Alexander Engel are members of the research team of „Printed Markets“ (Web) – „a research project on a new form of marketplace that emerged in Europe during the 17th and, for the most part, in the 18th century: the printed advertising market of the so-called ‚Intelligenzblätter‘ (intelligencers).
Using the example of the Basel Avisblatt (published 1729-1844/45), ‚Printed Markets‘ employs digital history and data science methods to systematically open up an extensive serial source, to shine a light on the socioeconomic transformations of the ‚Sattelzeit‘: The Avisblatt reflects myriads of ways to organise economic exchange, to interlink persons of complementary interests, to spin the socioeconomic web of a town in transition, from early modernity to the industrial age.
‚Printed Markets‘ is a project of the Department of History at the University of Basel and is financed by the Swiss National Science Foundation SNSF. The project is led by Susanna Burghartz.“
