A través del estudio de  3.237 piezas cerámicas de cronologías que van desde el siglo XIII al XVIII queremos conocer cuáles eran los influjos estilísticos europeos en las producciones de cerámica asturiana. A comienzos de la Edad Moderna los mercados asturianos comienzan a estar inundados por cerámicas de importación, principalmente procedentes de Holanda, Talavera de la Reina, Portugal, Sevilla, País Vasco e Inglaterra. La llegada de estas producciones influirá en las decoraciones desarrolladas en los alfares asturianos de Faro de Limanes y Miranda de Avilés. En esta investigación veremos como en piezas asturianas aparecen motivos creados en Talavera de la Reina, Portugal, Italia, Francia e incluso Holanda. Estas influencias señalan la capacidad de la artesanía del barro asturiana de asimilar novedades, de adaptarse a las nuevas modas decorativas europeas y a las demandas de la sociedad.The European stylistic influences in the Asturian ceramic productions of the Early Modern Period.Through the study of 3,237 ceramic pieces of chronologies that go from the XIII to the XVIII century, we want to know what the European stylistic influences in the production of Asturian ceramics were. At the beginning of the Early Modern Period the Asturian markets began to be flooded by imported ceramics mainly from the Netherlands, Talavera de la Reina, Portugal, Seville, the Basque Country and England. The arrival of these productions will influence the decorations developed in the Asturian potteries of Faro de Limanes and Miranda de Avilés. In this investigation we will see how in Asturian pieces, there are motifs created in Talavera de la Reina, Portugal, Italy, France and even Holland. These influences point to the ability of the Asturian mud crafts to assimilate novelties, the means of adaptation to the new European decorative forms and the demands of society.

AbstractIn 1707 an anonymous collection of treatises Fides et ratio was published in Amsterdam. The voluminous work of several authors contains a fierce critique of Locke's notion of faith and the moderate Enlightenment's conception of a reasonable Christianity. The sympathiser with mystic theology Pierre Poiret (1646–1719) wrote the general introduction. In the preface Poiret outlined a counter philosophy. However, the book deserves the interest of modern scholars because of the notions of religion and faith conceived by its authors. They are basically modern. Fides et ratio exemplifies the intense intellectual connections between Great Britain, the Netherlands and the German hinterland during the early modern period. The authors of the collection were part of an international non-denominational web. With some exceptions relations between the philosophes and the counter philosophers among the illuminati are neglected in modern research. In the final parts of this essay it will be argued that the ideas on faith and the ensuing separation of religion and the state created a common ground between Poiret and Christian Thomasius, the luminary of early German Enlightenment, who for some years had been directly influenced by the former's ideas.

Apparently, the Treaty of Tordesillas dismissed the possibility of Spanish shipping via Africa and the Cape of Good Hope. The preferred route to Asia was via Cape Horn or Acapulco. In this article we will show that access to Southern Africa was not entirely closed to the Spanish between the 16th and 18th centuries. We will analyse shipping in this period and, above all, we will discuss the enlightened reforms of the 18th century that changed the connecting routes between Spain and the Philippines, making them pass through Cape Town, as well as the hostility shown to the Hispanic presence in those waters by great powers like the Netherlands. Based on these connections, we will discuss the exchange of plants between Spain and Southern Africa.

This paper aims at offering a reconstruction of the salient features of the most important formal institution introduced by European states in the Early Modern Period with the aim of recognizing and protecting the intellectual property of the inventors. Such institutions went under different names – ‘Privilegio’ in Venice, ‘Patent’ in England, ‘Privilège’ in France, ‘Cedula de privilegio de invençion’ in Spain – and, in general, took the form of the concession of a special prerogative to the inventor by the sovereign or the republic, by virtue of which he could exploit, in economic terms, his own invention through holding a monopoly. The article starts with the origins of the privileges for invention, of which the first examples are to be found in the Middle Ages, but whose official ‘genesis’ is commonly identified with the Venetian law of 1474. The fundamental characteristics of the Venetian system, which was later imitated by other European states, are analysed. In the following section, the adoption of this model by those other states – Spain, France, England, and the Netherlands – is illustrated. In fact, the majority of these would make legislation on intellectual property an instrument of mercantilist policy, under the same conditions as prevailed in Venice. Further, we will examine some of the opportunities that the diffusion of these measures offered to those involved and the way in which they – as craftsmen, merchants, and speculators – took advantage of the business of privileges. Finally, before concluding, some thoughts on the changes made in the policy of privileges given the transformations that took place in the course of the eighteenth century, in order to understand the ‘adaptive’ capacity of these institutions.

As marketing specialists know all too well, our experience of products is prefigured by brands: trademarks that identify a product and differentiate it from its competitors. This process of branding has hitherto gained little academic discussion in the field of literary studies. Literary authors and the texts they produce, though, are constantly 'branded': from the early modern period onwards, they have been both the object and the initiator of a complex marketing process. This book analyzes this branding process throughout the centuries, focusing on the case of the Netherlands. To what extent is our experience of Dutch literature prefigured by brands, and what role does branding play when introducing European authors in the Dutch literary field (or vice versa)? By answering these questions, the volume seeks to show how literary scholars can account for the phenomenon of branding.
