En proposant d'appréhender les populations musulmanes de France par le biais du livre islamique et de ses circuits de distribution, cet ouvrage offre une lecture nouvelle et pertinente de l'islam hexagonal. L'ouverture de librairies islamiques comme la prolifération des points de vente plus informels d'ouvrages portant sur la pratique religieuse musulmane dans les quartiers parisiens de la Goutte d'Or et de la Folie Méricourt datent du milieu des années 1980. Ce phénomène, que l'auteur décrit et analyse en détail, offre la matière à une véritable sociologie urbaine de ces quartiers traditionnellement dévolus à l'accueil des migrants dans l'espace parisien. L'apparition des librairies signale l'aboutissement du processus d'installation pérenne et de communautarisation dans des espaces faussement perçus comme abandonnés et marginalisés. Qui sont cependant les clients fréquentant les librairies ? Quelle relation les lecteurs entretiennent-ils avec le livre islamique ? Quelles sont les motivations conduisant à l'acquisition d'ouvrages mais aussi d'objets en relation à l'islam ? Pour répondre à ces questions, l'auteur s'est livré à une véritable enquête portant sur les catalogues, les thèmes, les auteurs mais aussi les réseaux de distribution, du Beyrouth des années 1980-1990 à la naissance d'une imprimerie islamique parisienne. Cette sociologie historique des réseaux de production du livre s'achève au moment où les indices d'une crise de la demande deviennent manifestes. Comment expliquer cette crise ? Quelle recomposition annonce-t-elle ? Et surtout, que nous dit-elle sur les dynamiques de l'islam en France ? L'auteur livre sur ce point un faisceau d'analyses fort documentées qui sont bien loin des idées reçues.

In Poetic Modernism in the Culture of Mass Print, Bartholomew Brinkman argues that an emerging mass print culture conditioned the production, reception, and institutionalization of poetic modernism from the latter part of the nineteenth century through the middle of the twentieth century-with lasting implications for the poetry and media landscape. Drawing upon extensive archival research in the United States and Britain, Brinkman demonstrates that a variety of print collecting practices-including the anthology, the periodical, the collage poem, volumes of selected and collected poems, and the modern poetry archive-helped structure key formal and institutional sites of poetic modernism.Brinkman focuses on the generative role of book collecting practices and the negotiation of print ephemera in scrapbooks. He also traces the evolution of the modern poetry archive as a particular case of the mid-twentieth-century rise of literary archives and identifies parallels between the beginning of mass print culture at the end of the nineteenth century and the growth of digital culture today. Advocating for a transatlantic modernism that stretches roughly from 1880 to 1960-one that incorporates both popular and canonical poets-Brinkman successfully extends the geographical, historical, and vertical dimensions of modernist studies.Poetic Modernism in the Culture of Mass Print will appeal not only to scholars and students of literary modernism, modern periodical studies, book history, print culture, media studies, history, art history, and museum studies but also to librarians, archivists, museum curators, and information science professionals.

Scholars of pre-modern literary culture rely almost exclusively on texts that have survived: mostly those that have reached the comparative safety of modern library collections. But the urge to record, catalogue and advertise the wealth of new publications in the age of print created an additional and valuable resource: book lists. Printers made lists of their available stock; owners catalogued their libraries; religious authorities drew up indexes of banned books; assessors inventoried collections and stock as part of the settlement of estates, or legal proceedings. This volume examines an array of such lists taken from a variety of European countries during the fifteenth, sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The result is a wide-ranging re-evaluation of one of the most interesting and underused resources for early modern book history. Contributors include: Jürgen Beyer, Flavia Bruni, Gina Dahl, Cristina Dondi, Shanti Graheli, Neil Harris, Justyna Kiliańczyk-Zięba, Alexander Marr, Kasper van Ommen, Andrea Ottone, Leigh T.I. Penman, Benito Rial Costas, John Sibbald, Kevin M. Stevens and Malcolm Walsby.

Over the past half-century, bookselling, like many retail industries, has evolved from an arena dominated by independent bookstores to one in which chain stores have significant market share. And as in other areas of retail, this transformation has often been a less-than-smooth process. This has been especially pronounced in bookselling, argues Laura J. Miller, because more than most other consumer goods, books are the focus of passionate debate. What drives that debate? And why do so many people believe that bookselling should be immune to questions of profit? In Reluctant Capitalists, Miller looks at a century of book retailing, demonstrating that the independent/chain dynamic is not entirely new. It began one hundred years ago when department stores began selling books, continued through the 1960's with the emergence of national chain stores, and exploded with the formation of "superstores" in the 1990's. The advent of the Internet has further spurred tremendous changes in how booksellers approach their business. All of these changes have met resistance from book professionals and readers who believe that the book business should somehow be "above" market forces and instead embrace more noble priorities. Miller uses interviews with bookstore customers and members of the book industry to explain why books evoke such distinct and heated reactions. She reveals why customers have such fierce loyalty to certain bookstores and why they identify so strongly with different types of books. In the process, she also teases out the meanings of retailing and consumption in American culture at large, underscoring her point that any type of consumer behavior is inevitably political, with consequences for communities as well as commercial institutions.
