Birth and dissemination of consumer goods in the 18th century: journalism, novel, comedy, opera theater, particularly in Venice, there is a rapid and fortunate dissemination of journalism, not just the learned, of the novel, which - though not achieving the results of the European novel coevo - still has its fortune, even editorial.
