Abstract

The book, as an intellectual product at the intersection between social and individual, marked by the judgments of time on the times that are contemporary to it, combining in itself different fractions of innovation but also of creative inertia, represents an object of study with a vast revealing potential. The French historian and journalist François Furet studied in detail all the stages of book production in France in the 18th century. His objective was to reveal some significant regularities and constants for the reconstruction of a socio-cultural image of the respective stage of development of the French state and the society that lived in it. This goal was achieved through an external analysis of the actual content of the books, studying the data from the registers of the Royal Library Administration, which are currently in the inventory of the National Library of France.

REZUMAT

Cartea, drept produs intelectual aflat la intersecția dintre social și individual, marcat de judecăți ale timpului asupra timpurilor care îi sunt contemporane, combinând în sine fracții diferite de inovație dar și de inerția creativă, reprezintă un obiect de studiu cu un vast potențial revelator. Istoricul și jurnalistul francez François Furet a studiat minuțios toate etapele de producere a cărților în Franța în secolul al XVIII-lea. Obiectivul său a fost să degaje niște regularități și niște constante semnificative pentru reconstruirea unei imagini socio-culturale a etapei respective de dezvoltare a statului francez și a societății care trăia în el. Respectivul scop a fost atins printr-o analiză exterioară conținutului propriu-zis al cărților, studiindu-se datele din registrele Administrației regale a librăriei, care se află în prezent în inventarul Bibliotecii Naționale a Franței.
