L’atelier du Renouard vu du dedans

The publication of Guillaume Budé’s Institution du prince was a complex and fraught affair. The first editions in Lyon and Larrivour were printed, withdrawn from sale, and then republished but without some of the original preliminary texts.

The first editions in Lyon and Larrivour were printed, withdrawn from sale, and then republished but without some of the original preliminary texts. The first Paris edition was also problematic, but less because of the content than for the commercial context in which it appeared. This article looks at the rival claims of the publishers of the Paris and Larrivour editions as they sought to obtain privileges that would guarantee them a commercial monopoly for the distribution of Budé’s text. It examines the strange double privilege obtained by the Larrivour publisher—the second of which only appeared in the edition printed in Paris. Importantly, a document hitherto unknown to Budé scholars, an agreement between the publishers, sheds new light on the reasons for this extraordinary situation. As well as explaining the process that led to the publication of the Parisian edition, it reveals the tensions within the French book trade and the economics of book production in the sixteenth century. It allows us to appreciate the difficult relationship between powerful Parisian booksellers and their provincial counterparts. The resolution of the conflict illustrates how both were able to turn their disagreement into a mutually beneficial commercial agreement that allowed for a better distribution of both the Larrivour and Paris editions.Cairn restricted access
