| Streszczenie: | Unlike other trades, people in the book trade have left numerous products. Their
inventory permits to identify the shops and workshops activity. Historical sources also
permit to know the framework in which the book world lives and functions. This article examines the documents relevant to a part of this framework: the oversight and
solidarity patterns characteristic of the book trades in sixteenth-century Paris. The
University oversight set Paris apart from the other main print cities, Lyons and Rouen.
When studied in terms of censorship, this oversight has other facets: the control of the
book and manuscript people—some of them university officers—, the defence of the
franchise of trades, the opposition to monopolies. The actions of the royal power, who
progressively controlled the trades, are known regarding censorship in response to
religious disturbances, the organization and control of the trades. But further studies
are needed on privileges and monopolies, the charges of printer to the king and the
circulation of official documents. A latent sixteenth-century royal project, the incorporation, is mentioned.
As to the inner organization of the trades, three structures are presented: the group
of 24 University libraires jurés, the trustee of the booksellers and printers and his
assistants, the trade parish: the Confrérie Saint Jean-l’Évangéliste. Finally, this writer
suggests some lines of research on the subject. |
