Chapter 5 augments existing scholarship on the music profession by providing a wide-ranging discussion of what piecing together a freelance living as a string player entailed, decentering the success stories of high-profile violinists to examine the unglamorous, often mundane, work that most string players undertook. The chapter develops two interrelated themes. One concerns string players’ expectations and strategies for finding employment and achieving stable earnings in an overcrowded market, including the practice of “double jobbing.” The other considers how the new women players negotiated the social, economic, and institutional constraints of the patriarchal workplace and its gatekeepers. The chapter also illuminates how the job market changed and diversified in response to the new mass entertainment, retail, and catering industries, and highlights the commercial benefits that ensued from attracting consumers with live music, especially string sounds. These openings in turn brought violin culture into public earshot, raising awareness of its ubiquity.

The overview of the book’s argument provides a framework for understanding the relationship between fiscal policy, sovereignty, and Renaissance English literature. It examines the challenges of sovereign authority in the period, especially the fiscal responsibilities of rulers and the potential for political instability due to taxation. The chapter draws parallels between historical and contemporary debates on taxation, emphasizing fiscal policy’s role in shaping collective security and wellbeing. It delves into the complexities of funding sovereignty in early modern England, highlighting the tension between necessary taxation and perceived fiscal aggression. The chapter introduces the idea of a "fiscal security dilemma," in which efforts to ensure security through taxation can paradoxically create insecurity and concludes with an overview of the book’s chapters and the variety of ways literary writers engaged with the struggle over fiscal policy as central to defining political community and governance in Renaissance England.
This chapter presents a comprehensive workflow for applying network machine learning to functional MRI connectomes. We demonstrate data preprocessing, edge weight transformations, and spectral embedding techniques to analyze multiple brain networks simultaneously. Using multiple adjacency spectral embedding (MASE) and unsupervised clustering, we identify functionally similar brain regions across subjects. Results are visualized through abstract representations and brain-space projections, and compared with established brain parcellations. Our findings reveal that MASE-derived communities often align with known functional and spatial organization of the brain, particularly in occipital and parietal areas, while also identifying regions where functional similarity doesn’t imply spatial proximity. We illustrate how network machine learning can uncover meaningful patterns in complex neuroimaging data, emphasizing the importance of combining algorithmic approaches with domain expertise to motivate the remainder of the book.
