title = "Hats Off, Gentlemen! Changing Arts of Communication in the Eighteenth Century",
abstract = "These spirited research essays provide new views of the multifarious arts of communication in eighteenth-century Europe. Protocols were never static. Case-studies assess the interplay between tradition and innovation in interpersonal greetings (from hat-raising to the handshake) ; letter-writing ; literary creativity ; the role of theatre ; instruction across global cultures; and popular visual satire. A final overview looks beyond singular definitions such as {\textquoteleft}Enlightenment{\textquoteright} or {\textquoteleft}Modernity{\textquoteright} towards an era of sociocultural plurality.",
