Abstract

Collectionner implique au moins deux notions contradictoires, selon que l'on parle de la quête d'articles courants ou de la chasse aux pièces de valeur. Le livre se taille une place intermédiaire, étant à la fois d'usage quotidien et/ou objet de valeur. Sa situation au XVIIIe siècle n'échappe pas à cette ambiguïté dans une France, à l'évidence moins alphabétisée que de nos jours. I l ne s'agit pas ici de présenter le livre dans la société de l'Ancien Régime, mais de tenter de retrouver au travers de collections, reconnues par le truchement des catalogues de ventes publiques, sa place, son influence, son prix. Un dictionnaire des collectionneurs retenus, utilement complété par des indications généalogiques et héraldiques, permettra au lecteur de mieux connaîtr e ces amateurs, qui étaient aussi parfois des savants, mais tous des amis des livres.

Abstract

Silverman analyses subjects as diverse as the relationship between book collecting and aesthetic and cultural currents such as symbolism, the gendered nature of book collecting, the increse collaboration between authors and illustrators, and the marketing of fine books at international exhibits. The high priest of fin-de-siècle bibliophilia was Octave Uzanne (1851-1931), author, journalist, bibliographer, and publisher. He called for change in all matters concerning the luxury book, especially in illustration, binding, and typography. He became the herald of the new bibliophilia, which privileged close collaboration between artists, authors, publishers, and collectors.

Abstract

En dépit d’une longue tradition de condamnation moraliste voyant dans le bibliophile le représentant d’un rapport dévoyé à l’écrit, le XIXe siècle consacre la fortune littéraire de la bibliophilie. Un certain nombre d’écrivains eux-mêmes bibliophiles, tels Charles Nodier, Gérard de Nerval ou les frères Goncourt exploitent alors le potentiel narratif de la traque aux livres, avec son cortège de maniaques et de figures obsessionnelles, tout en exaltant les jouissances sensorielles qui en découlent.

Abstract

The mid-nineteenth century brought a revolution in popular and scholarly understandings of old and second-hand books. Manuals introduced new ideas and practices to increasing numbers of collectors, exhibitions offered opportunities previously unheard of, and scholars worked together to transform how the history of printing was understood. These dramatic changes would have profound consequences for bibliographical study and collecting, accompanied as they were by a proliferation in means of access. Many ideas arising during this time would even continue to exert their influence in the digitised arena of today. This book traces this revolution to its roots in commercial and personal ties between key players in England, France and beyond, illuminating how exhibitions, libraries, booksellers, scholars and popular writers all contributed to the modern world of book studies. For students and researchers, it offers an invaluable means of orientation in a field now once again undergoing deep and wide-ranging transformations.
