Sommario/riassunto

La période 1760-1850 voit l’émergence, puis le déclin d’un sous-genre nouveau : le récit de voyage excentrique. Ces « anti-récits de voyage » qui se déroulent dans une chambre, dans mes poches, en zigzag… jouent tant avec les codes narratologiques du voyage classique qu’avec sa mise en livre, déployant notamment des extravagances paratextuelles et typographiques qui problématisent la place de l’ouvrage dans un circuit de communication de plus en plus dominé par le paradigme industriel. Si Laurence Sterne, qui lance cette mode avec Tristram Shandy et Le Voyage sentimental, revendique sa célébrité littéraire, pour ses imitateurs Xavier de Maistre et Rodolphe Töpffer il s’



agit de maintenir leur automarginalisation dans un champ auctorial de plus en plus sous le signe de la « littérature industrielle » (Sainte-Beuve).  Ancrée dans une double tradition de la narratologie française (Lejeune, Genette) et de l’histoire du livre anglo-saxon (Robert Darnton), cette étude retrace le trajet de cet épiphénomène éditorial de ses origines à sa disparition avec le triomphe du paradigme industriel dans la production livresque, mettant ainsi en lumière la métamorphose non seulement d’un genre littéraire, mais du champ auctorial et éditorial dans lequel il s’inscrit.  The period 1760-1850 saw the rise and fall of a new sub-genre: eccentric travel writing. A number of anti-travel narratives journeyed round a bedroom, a pocket, or in a zigzag, playing with both the narratological structure and publishing format of mainstream travel writing, particularly by means of paratextual and typographical extravagances that challenged the book’s place in an increasingly industrialised communications circuit. While Laurence Sterne, who launched the new genre with Tristram Shandy and A Sentimental Journey, was avid for fame, his literary followers Xavier de Maistre and Rodolphe Töpffer were keen to uphold their own marginal stance in a field of authorship that was increasingly dominated by what the…

Sommario/riassunto

This book provides international perspectives on the law of copyright in relation to three core themes - copyright and developing countries; the government and copyright; and technology and the future of copyright. The third theme includes an examination of the extent to which technology will dictate the development of the law, and a re-examination of the role of copyright in fostering innovation and creativity. As a critique, one chapter discusses how certain rights can create or reinforce social inequality under copyright royalty systems. Underlying these themes is the role the law of copyright has in encouraging or impeding human flourishing.
