The French Book Trade in Enlightenment Europe

The French Book Trade in Enlightenment Europe
The French Book Trade in Enlightenment Europe (FBTEE) project is a digital humanities project of international significance mapping the production, marketing, dissemination, policing, and reception of books (and hence ideas) in the late eighteenth century. It aims to bring together and make interoperable and publicly available in a single digital resource multiple historical bibliometric databases. The first of these databases is now available on line via this site. A second stage of the project’s development is being funded by the Australian Research Council and Western Sydney University, where the project is now based. The version of the FBTEE database currently online maps the trade of the Société Typographique de Neuchâtel (STN), a celebrated Swiss publishing house that operated between 1769 and 1794. This resource was publicly launched on 25 June 2012 and is freely available on this website. Related:  Digital Humanities

British Book Trade Archives - 1830-1939 A location register. The aim of this site is to facilitate the research of book historians through listing the known locations of the archives of British publishers, printers, booksellers and stationers active in the period 1830-1939. Other book trade archives have also been included namely literary agents and bookbinders but these are by no means comprehensive. A supplementary section has been added which lists archives of the book trade in Dublin during this period. We would welcome notice of corrections and additions, please make them via the web form. British Book Trade Archives 1830-1939: A location Register, Alexis Weedon and Michael Bott was first published in print by History of the Book on Demand Series, March 1996. A revised list for the web was produced by Alexis Weedon, University of Luton, in 2001. Site created by Deena Ingham 2006

SEMINARIO HD Las Humanidades Digitales son una rama de estudio interdisciplinario en las cuales se fomenta el uso de herramientas digitales y nuevas metodologías para el análisis de temas propios de las disciplinas humanísticas y, en algunos casos, de las ciencias sociales. Actualmente en México existen algunos grupos e investigadores que adscriben sus investigaciones a esta disciplina; sin embargo, no existe una Licenciatura o programa de Posgrado con esta orientación (institucionalmente hablando); por lo tanto, este Seminario surge por el interés de crear un espacio de discusión y trabajo interdisciplinario e interinstitucional que permita conocer y discutir el papel que las Humanidades Digitales tienen en las diferentes áreas de estudio e instituciones en las que esta disciplina está presente. Descripción y objetivos del seminario El Seminario de Humanidades Digitales, tiene como objetivo principal la difusión de esta disciplina en su relación con los estudios de Humanidades y Ciencias Sociales.
