In Early Modern Europe the first readers of a book were not those who bought it. They were the scribes who copied the authors or translators manuscript, the censors who licensed it, the publisher who decided to put this title in his catalogue, the copy editor who prepared the text for the press, divided it and added punctuation, the typesetters who composed the pages of the book, and the proof reader who corrected them. The authors hand cannot be separated from the printers mind.This book is devoted to the process of publication of the works that framed their readers representations of the past or of the world. Linking cultural history, textual criticism and bibliographical studies, dealing with canonical works like Cervantes Don Quixote or Shakespeares plays as well as lesser known texts, Roger Chartier identifies the fundamental discontinuities that transformed the circulation of the written word between the invention of printing and the definition, three centuries later, of what we call 'literature'.
