占据乔纳森·罗斯宏伟研究核心的充满活力的工人阶级阅读文化，是从一个相当没有前途的根源成长起来的。在很长一段时间内，阅读就像出版一样，可能是一件危险的事情。在16世纪，托马斯·克兰默（Thomas Cranmer）曾“提议没收异端文本，起诉《圣经》读者”;罗斯告诉我们，“在1539年至1546年间，至少有20人因讨论异端而被烧死”。我们可以看到克兰默的来源：就像Carlo Ginzburg的Mennochio the米勒，在The Cheese and the蠕虫（Scholledge & Kegan Paul;伦敦，1980）中，那些能够阅读的人可能会发展批判性的，政治观点或平等倾向。罗伯特·达恩顿（Robert Darnton）的《法国大革命前的禁书》（Forbidden Bestsellers of Pre-Revolution France）诺顿;纽约和伦敦，1995年）表明，当局，完全敬畏的力量，字，工作到自己疯狂的书籍，焚烧假大部头和恐吓书商。在早期，出版和阅读可能会带来健康警告。
The enormously energetic working-class reading cultures occupying the core of Jonathan Rose’s magnificent study grew up from rather unpromising roots. For long periods, reading, like publishing, could be a dangerous business. In the sixteenth century, Thomas Cranmer had ‘proposed to confiscate heretical texts and prosecute bible readers’; and, as Rose informs us, ‘at least twenty people were burned for discussing heresy between 1539 to 1546’. We can see where Cranmer was coming from: just like Carlo Ginzburg’s Mennochio the Miller, in The Cheese and the Worms (Routledge & Kegan Paul; London, 1980), those who could read might develop critical, political views or levelling tendencies. Robert Darnton’s Forbidden Bestsellers of Pre-Revolutionary France (W.W. Norton; New York and London, 1995) shows that the authorities, fully in awe of the power of the word, worked themselves into frenzies about books, burning dummy tomes and imprisoning booksellers. In these early times, publishing and reading might have carried a health warning.
