crl-14934	Swaim, Elizabeth	The Order of Books: Readers, Authors, and Libraries in Europe between the Fourteenth and Eighteenth Centuries (Book Review)	1994-11-01	2	.pdf	application/pdf	1398	66	60	The essays are ostensibly tied together by a preface and an epi- logue, which obliquely suggest what may be the author's taking-off point: Chartier's restating of the complex, subtle, shifting relationships between books and their readers in earlier times as a paradigm for his uneasy coming to terms with the world of electronic texts. In the essays, originally published in French in 1992, Chartier questions, elu- cidates, and theorizes about ideas put forth by himself and others on such sub- jects as the relationships between text, print, and reader; changing perceptions of the connection between author and text, literary property, and censorship; and the various meanings of library (bib- · liotheque) as space, compilation/ conden- sation, or book catalog.	cache/crl-14934.pdf	txt/crl-14934.txt
