Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) George Washington was inaugurated as president in 1789 with one tooth in his mouth, a lower left bicuspid. The Father of His Country had sets of false teeth that were made of everything but wood, from elephant ivory and walrus tusk to the teeth of a fellow human. With characteristic learning and bracing insight, Robert Darnton shows us that the Enlightenment had false teeth alsothat it was not the Father of Our Modern World, responsible for all its advances and transgressions. In restoring the Enlightenment to human scale, Darnton locates its real aims, ambitions, and significance. So too...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Shock waves from the fall of the Berlin Wall in November 1989 continue to pulse through German society.

Die gern geführte Rede, daß wir soeben in das Informationszeitalter eingetreten seien, verkennt, daß »Informationszeitalter« auch in der Vergangenheit schon existiert haben. Nur die Formen und die Medien der Verbreitung von Informationen waren andere.Im Paris des 18. Jahrhunderts bestanden in erster Linie mündliche Kommunikationssysteme, und Informationen verbargen sich oft in poetischen Texten, die der gewöhnliche Pariser in öffentlichen Gärten rezitierte und auf den Straßen sang. Diese Poesie war politisch so wirkungsvoll, daß man versuchte, sie der polizeilichen Kontrolle zu...

Robert Darnton introduces us to the shadowy world of pirate publishers, garret scribblers, under-the-cloak book peddlers, smugglers, and police spies that composed the literary underground of the Enlightenment. Here are the ambitious writers who crowded into Paris seeking fame and fortune within the Republic of Letters, but who instead sank into the miserable world of Grub Street-victims of a closed world of protection and privilege. Venting their frustrations in an illicit literature of vitriolic pamphlets, libelles, and chroniques scandaleuses, these "Rousseaus of the...

The Devil in the Holy Water, or the Art of Slander from Louis XIV to Napoleon
ISBN: 9780812221718 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 552 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Slander has always been a nasty business, Robert Darnton notes, but that is no reason to consider it a topic unworthy of inquiry. By destroying reputations, it has often helped to delegitimize regimes and bring down governments. Nowhere has this been more the case than in eighteenth-century France, when a ragtag group of literary libelers flooded the market with works that purported to expose the wicked behavior of the great. Salacious or seditious, outrageous or hilarious, their books and pamphlets claimed to reveal the secret doings of kings and their mistresses, the lewd and extravagant...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) French literature of the eighteenth century means to us today Rousseau and Voltaire and the "classic" texts that, we imagine, gave rise to the Revolution. Yet very few of the standard works of the Enlightenment were as widely read as books whose names we have never heard, books that were the currency of a huge literary underground during the reign of Louis XVI. Included in this volume are Darnton's translations of excerpts from three of these works After twenty-five years of research, Darnton has summarized his findings in one brilliant work that examines the reciprocal relationship between...

Censors at Work: How States Shaped Literature
ISBN: 9780393351804 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) With his uncanny ability to spark life in the past, Robert Darnton re-creates three historical worlds in which censorship shaped literary expression in distinctive ways.
In eighteenth-century France, censors, authors, and booksellers collaborated in making literature by navigating the intricate culture of royal privilege. Even as the king's censors outlawed works by Voltaire, Rousseau, and other celebrated Enlightenment writers, the head censor himself incubated Diderot's great Encyclopedie by hiding the banned project's papers in his Paris townhouse. Relationships at court... With his uncanny ability to spark life in the past, Robert Darnton re-creates three historical worlds in which censorship shaped literary expression i...

Mesmerism and the End of the Enlightenment in France
ISBN: 9780674569515 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Early in 1788, Franz Anton Mesmer, a Viennese physician, arrived in Paris and began to promulgate a somewhat exotic theory of healing that almost immediately seized the imagination of the general populace. Robert Darnton, in his lively study of mesmerism and its relation to eighteenth-century radical political thought and popular scientific notions, provides a useful contribution to the study of popular culture and the manner in which ideas are diffused down through various social levels.

While the marquis de Sade was drafting "The 120 Days of Sodom" in the Bastille, another libertine marquis in a nearby cell was also writing a novel one equally outrageous, full of sex and slander, and more revealing for what it had to say about the conditions of writers and writing itself. Yet Sade's neighbor, the marquis de Pelleport, is almost completely unknown today, and his novel, "Les Bohemiens," has nearly vanished. Only a half dozen copies are available in libraries throughout the world. This edition, the first in English, opens a window into the world of garret poets, literary...
