prices in robert estienne s Booksellers catalogues paris 1541 1552 a statistical analysis
JLIS.it, 2018Co-Authors: Goran ProotAbstract:This survey focuses on prices as they were advertised by the Paris printer and bookseller Robert Estienne in nine Booksellers’ catalogues published between 1541 and 1552. 1,801 entries in total were entered onto a database; it has been possible to identify 77% of these from references to them in bibliographies, catalogues or other, mainly online, tools (in particular the Universal Short Title Catalogue , USTC). After exclusion of incomplete or doubtful data, 1,087 entries were selected for statistical analysis, in order to attempt to reveal overall trends as well as some of the main factors influencing prices of ‘first-hand’ (i.e., not second-hand), unbound books. These factors include the year of publication, the ‘age’ of editions, bibliographical format and use of any specific founts, such as Hebrew and Greek. Our analysis shows that prices of the majority of the editions mentioned more than once across different catalogues remained stable. In 13% of the cases for which enough data is present, prices varied. The results of this survey help us to understand something about the general price levels of books in Paris in this period, which in turn will help us develop a deeper understanding of the book trade on a wider scale in both time and space.

a victorian amazon com edward petherick and his colonial Booksellers agency
Book History, 2010Co-Authors: Alison RukavinaAbstract:In the late nineteenth century, a central figure in the international book trade was Australian Edward Petherick, who positioned himself as an important middleman for publishers wanting to expedite the sale of their books overseas. The article surveys the history of Petherick’s Colonial Booksellers’ Agency, which specialized in distributing, advertising, and publishing books for colonial and foreign markets, and illustrates the shift in the last two decades of the nineteenth century from British publishers eagerly cooperating with their overseas counterparts to British, colonial, and foreign firms directly competing for access to the international market in English-language books.
