The Business of Enlightenment pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
A great book about an even greater book is a rare event in publishing. Darnton's history of the "Encyclopedie" is such an occasion. The author explores some fascinating territory in the French genre of "histoire du livre," and at the same time he tracks the diffusion of Enlightenment ideas. He is concerned with the form of the thought of the great philosophes as it materialized into books and with the way books were made and distributed in the business of publishing. This is cultural history on a broad scale, a history of the process of civilization. In tracing the publishing story of Diderot's "Encyclopedie," Darnton uses new sources--the papers of eighteenth-century publishers--that allow him to respond firmly to a set of problems long vexing historians. He shows how the material basis of literature and the technology of its production affected the substance and diffusion of ideas. He fully explores the workings of the literary market place, including the roles of publishers, book dealers, traveling salesmen, and other intermediaries in cultural communication. How publishing functioned as a business, and how it fit into the political as well as the economic systems of prerevolutionary Europe are set forth. The making of books touched on this vast range of activities because books were products of artisanal labor, objects of economic exchange, vehicles of ideas, and elements in political and religious conflict. The ways ideas traveled in early modern Europe, the level of penetration of Enlightenment ideas in the society of the Old Regime, and the connections between the Enlightenment and the French Revolution are brilliantly treated by Darnton. In doing so he unearths a double paradox. It was the upper orders in society rather than the industrial bourgeoisie or the lower classes that first shook off archaic beliefs and took up Enlightenment ideas. And the state, which initially had suppressed those ideas, ultimately came to favor them. Yet at this high point in the diffusion and legitimation of the Enlightenment, the French Revolution erupted, destroying the social and political order in which the Enlightenment had flourished. Never again will the contours of the Enlightenment be drawn without reference to this work. Darnton has written an indispensable book for historians of modern Europe.

It is essentially a book of publishing history, not a book history. It focuses on the publisher, publishing, and diffusion of Encyclopedie between 1775 and 1800. I was surprised by (and envy) the abundant material (various account books, letters, etc) used by the author. An important book full of details. Better to know French when reading...

在書的第二頁,darnton同學說:在美國,書籍史給安排到了善本閱覽室,人們小心翼翼研究書籍裝幀與紙張上的水印以及簡·奧斯汀的各個版本。可是在這裡,稀鬆平常大塊喫肉狠嚼土豆的歷史學家不見了蹤跡,而正是他們發掘出書籍在推動歷史前進中發揮的作用。 於是,darnton同學就一...
評分标题很有意思,但内容更加有意思,我以前都不知道原来历史还可以这样观察与研究。 狄德罗编辑《百科全书》是耳熟能详的书。此书对人类的进步所起的作用已经有着大量的了解。可是此书却从另一个方面,即此书的出版、印刷、发行入手,让我们了解到此书的另一面历史。 我读完之后...

評分 評分启蒙为何?这是个问题。 从沙龙女主人到萨德勋爵,从伏尔泰到培根,从门德尔松到康德,从卢梭到马克思……或许一千个人,就有一千个哈姆雷特式的答案。而对于经营《百科全书》的书商庞库克等人而言,启蒙,不过投机。 十八世纪,启蒙运动燃烧了整个欧洲,激情与理性成为时代...
