Sonderheft der Zeitschrift „Mémoires du livre / Studies in Book Culture“ zur „Book History in the Nordic Countries“

Die zweis­prachige Zeitschrift „Mémoires du livre / Stud­ies in Book Cul­ture“, die open access erscheint, ist …

… ded­i­cat­ed to the study of the book in all its forms, includ­ing rare books, peri­od­i­cals, and ebooks. The jour­nal is open to every­thing con­cern­ing the past, present and future of the book: agents and insti­tu­tions in the chain of pro­duc­tion, mate­ri­al­i­ties and con­tents, prac­tices and uses. It is inter­est­ed in the pow­er that oper­ates with­in the world of the book as well as in the pow­er that books have. Mémoires du livre – Stud­ies in Book Cul­ture strives to shed light on the whole book cul­ture, from the pro­duc­tion to the recep­tion of books : every link in the chain is analysed, from author to read­er, includ­ing edi­tor, dis­trib­u­tor, trans­la­tor, book­seller, and librar­i­an. Res­olute­ly inter­dis­ci­pli­nary (his­to­ry, lit­er­ary stud­ies, eco­nom­ics, soci­ol­o­gy, etc.), the jour­nal is equal­ly open to the study of iden­ti­ties – by gen­der, cul­ture, social group – as they express them­selves in the his­to­ry of the book.
