Das Deutsche Historische Institut Paris und seine Gründungsväter
Moderne Wissenschaftsgeschichte ist nicht gleichzusetzen mit einer Geschichte der abstrakten und empirischen Wahrheitsfindung. Genauso wenig reduziert sie sich auf die meist als intellektuell begriffenen Inhalte. Wissenschaft vollzieht sich vielmehr im sozialen Raum und wird damit stets von wissenschaftsfernen Aspekten beeinflusst. Somit müssen auch die Gründungsväter des Deutschen Historischen Instituts Paris als sozial determinierte Akteure gelten, die in diesem Band als Wissenschaftsorganisatoren zu erleben sein werden. Gleichzeitig erfahren wir mehr über die für ihre wissenschaftliche Arbeit charakteristischen Methoden, über ihre Rolle bei der Repräsentation von Raum und ihre Arbeit im Spannungsfeld von Wissenschaft und Politik.
The Evolution of the Book
Distinguished scholar and library systems innovator Frederick Kilgour tells a five-thousand-year story in this exciting work, a tale beginning with the invention of writing and concluding with the emerging electronic book. Calling on a lifetime of interest in the growth of information technology, Kilgour brings a fresh approach to the history of the book, emphasizing in rich, authoritative detail the successive technological advances that allowed the book to keep pace with ever-increasing needs for information. Borrowing a concept from evolutionary theory--the notion of punctuated equilibria--to structure his account, Kilgour investigates the book's three discrete historical forms--the clay ...

Technique and Design in the History of Printing
Containing 26 selected and thoroughly rewritten essays and articles (all written by Janssen and published previously between 1976 and 2002 in yearbooks and periodicals) all dedicated to the history of printing and book production, this work draws systematically attention to the typogtaphical design of the book. The articles are mainly divided into two fields of attention: the analytical bibliography of the printed book (book production, studies of the technical aspects of type-setting and printing, type founding, printing presses, paper etc.) and the typographical design of books (its functions and its influence on how texts are read).

The Fifteenth-Century Book
The fifteenth century, one of the most curious and confused periods in recorded history, witnessed amazing developments in the printing industry and in the production of books. The present volume surveys the history of the manufacture of books throughout the fifteenth century, whether written by hand or produced by the press, and points out that both methods faced very similar problems and found almost identical solutions for them. Actually, the fifteenth century itself saw no material difference between manuscripts and incunabula (fifteenth-century printings), and regarded the latter simply as codices produced by "a new method of artificial writing." Curt F. Bühler discusses the impact of ...
The Coming of the Book
Books, and the printed word more generally, are aspects of modern life that are all too often taken for granted. Yet the emergence of the book was a process of immense historical importance and heralded the dawning of the epoch of modernity. In this much praised history of that process, Lucien Febvre and Henri-Jean Martin mesh together economic and technological history, sociology and anthropology, as well as the study of modes of consciousness, to root the development of the printed word in the changing social relations and ideological struggles of Western Europe.
