Lost Books


en Limba Engleză Legat în piele – 19 apr 2016

Apreciem rigoarea cu care Lost Books, editată de Flavia Bruni și Andrew Pettegree, abordează „materia întunecată” a universului Gutenberg: acele ediții care au existat, dar care nu au supraviețuit până în prezent. Andrew Pettegree, profesor la St. Andrews și unul dintre cei mai influenți istorici ai presei scrise, fundamentează această lucrare pe o metodologie ce transcende simpla bibliografie, căutând urmele cărților dispărute în registre comerciale, liste de cenzură și inventare private. Lucrarea extinde cadrul propus de Lost Books and Printing in London, 1557-1640 de Alexandra Hill, integrând date noi din spațiul scandinav, polonez și italian, oferind astfel o perspectivă cu adevărat paneuropeană asupra pierderii culturale. Structura volumului este organizată progresiv, începând cu estimările statistice ale incunabulelor pierdute și continuând cu studii de caz naționale care dezvăluie supraviețuirea presei de mână în Țările de Jos sau Spania. O secțiune crucială este dedicată cenzurii și consecințelor sale, unde autorii urmăresc destinul edițiilor interzise, precum cele ale lui Bartolomeo Cardoni. De asemenea, volumul analizează dispersia bibliotecilor celebre, precum cea a lui Hugo Grotius, oferind o punte către istoria modernă prin capitolele dedicate distrugerilor din timpul celui de-al Doilea Război Mondial. Spre deosebire de Lost Libraries de J. Raven, care se concentrează pe distrugerea instituțională, Lost Books investighează mecanismele subtile de dispariție — uzura, lipsa de interes comercial sau fragmentarea colecțiilor private. Tonul este unul academic precis, oferind instrumente de recuperare a memoriei culturale prin analiză numerică și arhivistică.

De ce să citești această carte

Recomandăm acest volum istoricilor, bibliografilor și cercetătorilor interesați de circulația ideilor în Europa modernă timpurie. Cititorul câștigă o înțelegere profundă a fragilității patrimoniului scris și a tehnicilor moderne de reconstrucție a istoriei editoriale. Este o resursă esențială pentru a înțelege nu doar ce s-a păstrat, ci mai ales ce lipsește din canonul cultural european, totul prezentat într-o ediție de lux, legată în piele.

Recenzii

“This is a rewarding and important book”.
David McKitterick, Trinity College, Cambridge. In: Library & Information History, Vol. 33, No. 2 (2017), pp. 145-146.

“Pettegree’s introduction, ‘The Legion of the Lost’ is a full-length essay discussing not only how books become lost but how one can know about what has been lost. It is accessible and engaging and would be a worthy reading assignment for undergraduates or masters students studying book history.”
Iona Hine, The University of Sheffield. Reviewed for Linguistic DNA [10 January 2017].
