Mining Language by Allison Margaret Bigelow

Building on works that have narrated the global history of American mining in economic and labour terms, Mining Language is the first book-length study of the technical and scientific vocabularies that miners developed in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries as they engaged with metallic materials.
Allison Margaret Bigelow is assistant professor of colonial Latin American literature at the University of Virginia.
