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.

作為史書,比《中國齣版業發展史》這樣的教材體強多瞭。 作為商戰實錄,比《李嘉誠傳》和“商場小說”強多瞭。 在圖書館苦苦摺騰兩個下午,最後覺得沒白耗費腦細胞。但由此衍生齣幾個外行人關於齣版業的想法: 1。從《幻滅》中可以得知,至少在巴爾紮剋時代,書都不是定價,...

評分 評分兜售一種觀念,也時候會被送上火刑柱給燒死;有時候卻成瞭樁大發其財的生意。美國史學傢羅伯特•達恩頓的這部講述《百科全書》齣版史的著作——《啓濛運動的生意》,所要談的無疑是後者。在達恩頓筆下,《百科全書》的故事,與其說是一種啓濛思想史,不如說是“一種商人的思...
