Books Without Borders in Enlightenment Europe – French Cosmopolitanism and German Literary Markets: Material Texts

Autor Jeffrey Freedman
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 mai 2012
This book examines one of the most important axes of the book trade in Enlightenment Europe: the circulation of French books between France and German-speaking Europe. The first detailed study of the Franco-German trade, it shows how book dealers mediated the transmission of literature across the frontiers of nation, language, and culture.

Recenzii

"Anyone with any knowledge about eighteenth-century literary and cultural history will recognize the importance of this book. A study of this sort has long been needed not simply to extend our understanding of the French book in Germany but also to counterbalance and revise various national 'history of the book' series which focus on the national unit and precisely miss the importance of books as livres sans frontieres."-James Raven, University of Essex
