Between the end of the Middle Ages and the eighteenth century, what methods were used to monitor and control the increasing number of texts--from the early handwritten books to the later, printed volumes--that were being put into circulation? In "The Order of Books, Chartier examines the different systems required to regulate the world of writing through the centuries, from the registration of titles to the classification of works. The modern world has, he argues, directly inherited the products of this labor: the basic principle of referring to texts, the dream of a universal library, real or imaginary, containing all the works ever written, and the emergence of a new definition of the book leading to some of the innovations that transformed the relationship of the reader to the text. "The Order of Books will be welcomed by students and researchers of cultural history, and the history of reading in particular.

书籍与权力、书籍与秩序,关乎编撰者的主观,法国贵族的patronage,现代图书馆的系统化。最后写到抄本的消亡和屏幕阅读的兴起,那么精准的预测。书写不会消失,只是载体不断接受省思。

篇章结构与细节写作都很精致。第二篇跟着福柯下棋却仍然下了一手好棋。

第二章最好,综合了很多现有研究,特别是提到18世纪对于版权和著作权的讨论,对于现代“作者”概念的形成起了很大作用。相比之下,对福柯的修正显得不那么重要。(清理烂尾书。)

阅读作为一个积极的动作这件事或许并不停止在符号和阐释的层面,也不完全从属于语言张成的空间。阅读作为积极动作也有其物质性的侧面:夏蒂埃在最后讨论大众文化的时候提出的两个方向很有启发。一方面是阅读这个动作本身构筑的norm,本身划定了一系列文本的范围;另一方面是阅读的动作如何作为一种驱力推动书籍自身的流变。感觉研究的自反性还有更多的可能性。
