‎2 volumes in-12, demi-chagrin brun de l'époque, dos à nerfs, titre doré, tranches mouchetées, xii, 388 p. et (4), 432 p. Paris, Librairie Fischbacher, 1893-1901.‎

‎Edition originale, rare, bien complète des deux séries, de cet essai d'histoire littéraire publié à un moment d'intenses bouleversements dans la production, la diffusion et la réception de la littérature. L'auteur, qui eut le plus grand mal à trouver un éditeur, recherche les conditions d'obtention du succès littéraire, analyse les incohérences et iniquités de la gloire et démontre, exemples à l'appui, que les réputations littéraires, passées et présentes, constituent la plus hasardeuse et la plus aberrante loterie. S'il obtint un succès d'estime auprès de la critique de l'époque, le livre rencontra un cuisant échec commercial.Sur cet épisode, cf. Anne Simonin, "Esquisse d'une histoire de l'échec. L'histoire malheureuse 'Des réputations littéraires' de Paul Stapfer", "Mil neuf cent. Revue d'histoire intellectuelle", 1994, p. 111 sq.Bon exemplaire, très bien relié.‎

‎STARRE ALEXANDER‎

‎Metamedia: American Book Fictions And Literary Print Culture After Digitization‎

‎University of Iowa Press Iowa City: 2015. Softcover. Brand new book. Does literature need the book With electronic texts and reading devices growing increasingly popular the codex is no longer the default format of fiction. Yet as Alexander Starre shows in Metamedia American literature has rediscovered the book as an artistic medium after the first e-book hype in the late 1990s. By fusing narrative and design a number of "bibliographic" writers have created reflexive fictions�metamedia�that invite us to read printed formats in new ways. Their work challenges ingrained theories and beliefs about literary communication and its connections to technology and materiality. Metamedia explores the book as a medium that matters and introduces innovative critical concepts to better grasp its narrative significance. Combining sustained textual analysis with impulses from the fields of book history media studies and systems theory Starre explains the aesthetics and the cultural work of complex material fictions such as Mark Z. Danielewski's House of Leaves 2000 Chip Kidd's The Cheese Monkeys 2001 Salvador Plascencia's The People of Paper 2005 Reif Larsen's The Selected Works of T. S. Spivet 2009 and Jonathan Safran Foer's Tree of Codes 2010. He also broadens his analysis beyond the genre of the novel in an extensive account of the influential literary magazine McSweeney's Quarterly Concern and its founder Dave Eggers. For this millennial generation of writers and publishers the computer was never a threat to print culture but a powerful tool to make better books. In careful close readings Starre puts typefaces layouts and cover designs on the map of literary criticism. At the same time the book steers clear of bibliophile nostalgia and technological euphoria as it follows writers designers and publishers in the process of shaping the surprising history of literary bookmaking after digitization. Alexander Starre is an assistant professor of North American studies at Freie Universit�t Berlin. He has published articles and book chapters on contemporary American literature literary theory graphic narratives and ecocriticism. He lives in G�ttingen Germany. "Starre's Metamedia is a definitive achievement: lucid searching comprehensive and repeatedly eye-opening."�Garrett Stewart author Bookwork: Medium to Object to Concept to Art "Alexander Starre's Metamedia is a detailed carefully argued account of an important new development in contemporary literature an exceptionally generous patient and at times revelatory study."�Evan Brier author A Novel Marketplace: Mass Culture the Book Trade and Postwar American Fiction University of Iowa Press, Iowa City: 2015 paperback‎
