Elsa Fougt, Kungl. boktryckare : Aktör i det litterära systemet ca 1780-1810Rimm, Anna-Maria January 2009 (has links)
Elsa Fougt (1744–1826), a woman entrepreneur, was one of the leading figures in the late eighteenth-century Swedish book trade. Her main enterprise was the printing house Kongl. Tryckeriet (the Royal Printing House), which was responsible for printing and publishing the official documents of the Swedish realm. Besides her office as Royal Printer, she also ran a publishing house, two bookshops and a type foundry, as well as being the editor of the Swedish newspaper Stockholms Weckoblad. The dissertation analyzes Fougt's different enterprises and her position in the book trade between 1780 and 1810, from the perspectives of sociology of literature and gender history. It consists of five independent articles, preceded by an introductory chapter which summarizes the articles and discusses their main findings. The first two articles explore the office of the Royal Printer during the whole eighteenth century, while the third article concerns Elsa Fougt’s position as Royal Printer. The fourth article is a study of Fougt's publishing house, and the fifth and final article focuses on her international bookshop, where, among other things, she sold clandestine books imported from the STN in Switzerland. Fougt's successful career was made possible by a number of favourable circumstances, the most important being her family background and network. Her father Peter Momma held the office of Royal Printer, and Elsa Fougt and her husband Henric inherited his position when he died. When Henric passed away in 1782, Elsa – as a widow – was legally allowed to take up the office of Royal Printer independently. The fact that Elsa Fougt was a woman does not seem to have particularly affected her role as Royal Printer. In comparison with her predecessors, her position as Royal Printer appears to have been rather strong. She was a shrewd businesswoman who successfully negotiated with the authorities for higher financial compensation. Her office was obviously of greater importance than her gender. Being both a publisher, a printer, and a bookseller, Fougt handled most of the functions of the book trade, although she distinguished between these different functions. Furthermore, rather than just being an intermediary of books, she also took part in the creation of them, for example by initiating texts and editing manuscripts. In the book trade of her time, Fougt can be seen as both a traditionalist – holding the inherited office of Royal Printer – and an innovator, representing a more modern literary system with increased specialization.

Les suites instrumentales issues des opéras de Lully publiées à Amsterdam : études historique, philologique et musicale sur l’éditeur Estienne Roger (1665/66 - 1722) / The instrumental suites from the operas of Lully published in Amsterdam : historical, philological and musical studies on the publisher Estienne Roger (1665/66 - 1722)Shichijo, Megumi 24 January 2017 (has links)
Les opéras de Jean-Baptiste de Lully (1632-1687) ont joui d’une diffusion européenne tant de son vivant que de manière posthume. Parmi les pays où ses opéras suscitèrent un véritable engouement, la Hollande bénéficiait d’une situation particulière. En effet, les opéras ont paru aussi bien dans les théâtres que dans l’édition musicale. Concernant l’édition musicale, la ville d’Amsterdam occupa un rôle primordial, où les opéras de Lully furent publiés non seulement en partitions générales et réduites, mais aussi en extraits vocaux et instrumentaux, dont les derniers ont pu être considérés comme les suites instrumentales. Celles-ci constituent un corpus exceptionnel dans la diffusion de l’opéra de Lully, car elles sont arrangées en 4 parties au lieu des 5 originairement présentées et ont joué un rôle intermédiaire entre l’opéra français et la suite d’orchestre allemande. Parmi les éditeurs contribuant à ce phénomène, il faut notamment distinguer un éditeur ayant exercé le commerce extensif : Estienne Roger (1665/66 - 1722). Au sein des recherches sur Roger, la publication de la musique instrumentale italienne et le commerce international représentaient deux enjeux majeurs. Pourtant, la place de la musique française dans ses éditions n’a pas suffisamment été évaluée, bien qu’elle ait atteint jusqu’à un tiers. Cette thèse traite de la particularité commerciale et éditoriale de ce domaine, en se focalisant sur les suites provenant des opéras de Lully. Trois points seront mis en examen : avantage de Roger en tant que libraire huguenot, son utilisation des catalogues lors de la vente des œuvres de Lully, caractéristiques musicales des suites par le biais de l’arrangement. / The operas of Jean-Baptiste de Lully (1632-1687) enjoyed a European diffusion both during his lifetime and posthumously. Among the countries where his operas aroused a real enthusiasm, Holland enjoyed a special situation. Indeed, the operas appeared both in theaters and in music publishing. Concerning musical publishing, the city of Amsterdam occupied a primordial role, where Lully's operas were published not only in scores, but also in vocal and instrumental extracts, the last of which could be considered as the instrumental suites. These suites constitute an exceptional corpus in the diffusion of Lully's opera, as they are arranged in 4 parts instead of the 5 originally presented and played an intermediate role between the French opera and the German orchestra suite. Among the publishers contributing to this phenomenon, we must distinguish a publisher who has carried out the extensive marketing: Estienne Roger (1665/66 - 1722). In the researches about Roger, the publication of Italian instrumental music and international trade were two major issues. Yet the place of French music in his editions has not been sufficiently evaluated, although it has reached as much as a third. This thesis deals with the commercial and editorial character of this field, focusing on the suites resulting from the Lully’s operas. Three points will be examined: Roger's advantage as a Huguenot bookseller, his use of catalogs in the sale of Lully's works, musical features of the suites through the arrangement.

The thesis is dedicated to the changes of the book market between its entities, libraries and final consumer of information (readers, library users) after the arrival of the internet. Development of the internet has brought searching of the new business models and opportunities for cooperation. Electronic publishing that, along with the internet availability, commenced to raise is the starting factor for the development of electronic books. The thesis outlines the roles of individual entities of the book market, i.e. publisher and seller (distributor, book-seller and digital platform) and libraries during the production, sale and accessing books with the focus on electronic books. After description of used terminology, especially different approaches to the definition of "an e-book", the next chapter presents hardware devices and software programs that enable reading e-books.
