Description
Considers the counting-house in ShT in light of the late medieval concern with "architectural privacy" and "new formations of sociability" in the bourgeois household. Contextualizes gendered space in ShT in relation to mercantile labor, developments in home design, and matters of perspective in painting and manuscript illumination.
