Summary:
Nous sommes en 1763. L'un des maîtres de la correspondance s'adresse ici à monsieur de Sartine, son vieil ami, alors directeur de la Librairie. Et c'est un véritable plaidoyer pour la défense du Libraire-Éditeur. Il s'interroge d'abord sur le lien entre le commerce et la littérature et décrit avec soin, mais sans la condamner, la transformation de la valeur littéraire en(...)

Summary:
Nous sommes en 1763. L'un des maîtres de la correspondance s'adresse ici à monsieur de Sartine, son vieil ami, alors directeur de la Librairie. Et c'est un véritable plaidoyer pour la défense du Libraire-Éditeur. Il s'interroge d'abord sur le lien entre le commerce et la littérature et décrit avec soin, mais sans la condamner, la transformation de la valeur littéraire en valeur mercantile. Ce faisant, il lie le sort de la littérature à celui de l'édition. Il plaide en faveur d'un fonds de librairie, celui qui s'écoule lentement, en équilibre avec les ventes plus rapides. Au fil d'une véritable enquête, il démontre par là même au lecteur contemporain que les problèmes qui se posent aujourd'hui au libraire ou à l'éditeur sont loin d'être récents, bien qu'ils se posent aujourd’hui plus que jamais.

Summary:
Depuis le développement de l’imprimerie, la civilisation occidentale vivait dans la culture du livre comme les poissons vivent dans l’eau, c’est-à-dire sans le savoir. Elle avait à ce point imprégné nos façons de sentir et de penser que nous avions fini par la confondre avec la nature humaine.

Et du coup, nous ne pouvons plus penser l’homme, la culture, l’enseignement et l’éducation de la même façon.

Summary:
The dawn of the electronic media age in the 1960s began a cultural shift from the modernist grid and its determination of projection and representation to the fluid structures and circuits of the network, presenting art with new challenges and possibilities. This anthology considers art at the center of network theory, from the 1960s to the present

Paper Knowledge is a remarkable book about the mundane: the library card, the promissory note, the movie ticket, the PDF (Portable Document Format). It is a media history of the document. Drawing examples from the 1870s, the 1930s, the 1960s, and today, Lisa Gitelman thinks across the media that the document form has come to inhabit over the last 150 years, including(...)

Summary:
Todd Presner, David Shepard, and Yoh Kawano put digital humanities theory into practice to chart the proliferating cultural records of places around the world. A digital platform transmogrified into a book, it explains the ambitious online project of the same name that maps the historical layers of city spaces in an interactive, hypermedia environment. The authors examine the media archaeology of Google Earth and the cultural–historical meaning of map projections, and explore recent events—the “Arab Spring” and the Fukushima nuclear power plant disaster—through social media mapping that incorporates data visualizations, photographic documents, and Twitter streams.

With textbook readers and digital downloads proliferating, it is easy to imagine a time when printed books will vanish. Such forecasts miss the mark, argue Jeffrey Schnapp and Matthew Battles. Future bookshelves will not be wholly virtual, and libraries will thrive—although in a variety of new social, cultural, and architectural forms. Schnapp and Battles combine deep(...)

Summary:
Graphesis provides a descriptive critical language for the analysis of graphical knowledge. In an interdisciplinary study fusing digital humanities with media studies and graphic design history, Drucker outlines the principles by which visual formats organize meaningful content. Among the most significant of these formats is the graphical user interface (GUI)—the dominant feature of the screens of nearly all consumer electronic devices. Because so much of our personal and professional lives is mediated through visual interfaces, it is important to start thinking critically about how they shape knowledge, our behavior, and even our identity.

Summary:
The world is filling with ever more kinds of media, in ever more contexts and formats. Physical locations are increasingly tagged and digitally augmented. Sensors, processors, and memory are not found only in chic smart phones but also built into everyday objects. So it is worth remembering that underneath all these augmentations and data flows, fixed forms persist, and that to notice them can improve other sensibilities. Ambient Commons invites readers to look past current obsessions with smart phones to rethink attention itself, to care for more situated, often inescapable forms of information.

Showmen exhibited such panoramas in venues that ranged from opera(...)
