The Business of Enlightenment pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
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.

It is essentially a book of publishing history, not a book history. It focuses on the publisher, publishing, and diffusion of Encyclopedie between 1775 and 1800. I was surprised by (and envy) the abundant material (various account books, letters, etc) used by the author. An important book full of details. Better to know French when reading...

启蒙运动和法国大革命有着怎样的联系?《百科全书》在18世纪的法国真的得顶礼膜拜之地位吗?也许是革命情结弥漫于20世纪的中国,寻根溯源总想弄清法国大革命的因由,尤其是思想指引在法国大革命中的角色如何。 从文学作品《九三年》到托克维尔的《旧制度与大革命》,或从人道主...
评分一个特色:从物质的角度解读思想 一个启发:反对一刀切 一 庞库克 这本书的副标是“百科全书的出版史1755-1800”,而出版商庞库克恰好在1800年左右去世,可见本书和狄德罗、卢梭、伏尔泰之辈几无联系,反倒更像是庞库克一个人的商海浮沉录。 这个故事应该在《百科全书》第一...
评分标题很有意思,但内容更加有意思,我以前都不知道原来历史还可以这样观察与研究。 狄德罗编辑《百科全书》是耳熟能详的书。此书对人类的进步所起的作用已经有着大量的了解。可是此书却从另一个方面,即此书的出版、印刷、发行入手,让我们了解到此书的另一面历史。 我读完之后...

评分通常情况下,贪婪不是被人热烈颂扬的美德,比如眼下金融危机,对金融大亨们贪婪的斥责已经到了有人想真刀真枪去扁人的地步。然而,环顾历史,你又会发现贪婪的微妙性,往往,欲望、激情、雄心等或中性,或褒义的品格离贪婪仅一步距离,特别在商业领域,为了钱,打上“贪婪...
