In this latest episode of In Theory, Disha Karnad Jani interviews Robert Darnton, Professor Emeritus and University Librarian Emeritus at Harvard University, about his recent book, The Revolutionary Temper: Paris, 1748-1789 (W. W. Norton, 2024), also published in French translation: L'humeur révolutionnaire: Paris, 1748-1789 (trans. Hélène Borraz, Gallimard, 2024).  Darnton traces how the antecedents to revolution circulated among the Parisian public in the decades before the storming of the Bastille, through their everyday oppositions to the rising price of bread, the overreaches of the monarchy, and the policing of poor neighborhoods. Through their growing sense that the powerful in their society were not governing as they should, ordinary people in Paris began to acquire a shared feeling of discontent, and showed this through many forms of public performance and protest. Darnton tracks this as the development of a "revolutionary temper" in Paris, one which made the population ready to change their world in a matter of decades.

In the late-18th century, a group of publishers in what historian Robert Darnton calls the "Fertile Crescent" — countries located along the French border, stretching from Holland to Switzerland — pirated the works of prominent (and often banned) French writers and distributed them in France, where laws governing piracy were in flux and any notion of "copyright" very much in its infancy. Piracy was entirely legal and everyone acknowledged — tacitly or openly — that these pirated editions of works by Rousseau, Voltaire, and Diderot, among other luminaries, supplied a growing readership within France, one whose needs could not be met by the monopolistic and tightly controlled Paris Guild. Darnton's book Pirating and Publishing: The Book Trade in the Age of Enlightenment (Oxford UP, 2021) focuses principally on a publisher in Switzerland, one of the largest and whose archives are the most complete. Through the lens of this concern, he offers a sweeping view of the world of writing, publishing, and especially bookselling in pre-Revolutionary France--a vibrantly detailed inside look at a cut-throat industry that was struggling to keep up with the times and, if possible, make a profit off them. Featuring a fascinating cast of characters — lofty idealists and down-and-dirty opportunists — this new book expands upon on Darnton's celebrated work on book-publishing in France, most recently found in Literary Tour de France. Pirating and Publishing reveals how and why piracy brought the Enlightenment to every corner of France, feeding the ideas that would explode into revolution.

Could video consultations have the potential to be a game changer in medical education? In this SNUG podcast interview, Dr. Richard Darnton @DrDarnton discusses his role in running the GP part of the Medical course at the University of Cambridge, and his role as director of the GP Education Group (GPEG), focusing on the emphasis on hands-on experience for medical students in general practice. He highlights the topic of video consultations in medical education, particularly in general practice. Dr. Darnton discusses the challenges faced by GPs in adopting video consultations, including issues of complexity, logistics, and the perception of limited benefits. He suggests the use of structured video clinics in general practice, and explores the benefits of video consultations for medical education, such as overcoming space constraints and providing valuable insights into patients' environments. We discuss the experiences of students during the pandemic, where remote consultations became more prevalent. Study findings indicate that non-face-to-face consultations, including telephone and video, provide unique learning opportunities for students, improving their consultation skills and clinical reasoning. We consider the infrastructure challenges of implementing video consultations in medical education, including the need for waiting rooms, access to patient notes, and integrated consent functionalities. Dr. Darnton expresses optimism about the potential for innovative platforms to address these challenges and enhance medical education. He encourages a shift in mindset and embracing technology for the benefit of both education and clinical care. Any feedback or comments are welcome via email: andrew.mcelhinney2@nhs.scot or alex.defranco@phs.scot. Why do GPs rarely do video consultations?

Seine Doku-Fiktion "Henning von Rittersdorf: Das Deutsche Schicksal.

Wir sprechen in Bezug auf dieses Buch darüber wo die Grenzen zwischen Forschungsliteratur und Romanen sind, wie Wissenschaft schreiben sollte und warum es vielleicht einfacher ist über die Frühe Neuzeit zu schreiben.

In the late-18th century, a group of publishers in what historian Robert Darnton calls the "Fertile Crescent" countries located along the French border, stretching from Holland to Switzerland pirated the works of prominent (and often banned) French writers and distributed them in France, where laws governing piracy were in flux and any notion of "copyright" very much in its infancy. Piracy was entirely legal and everyone acknowledged tacitly or openly that these pirated editions of works by Rousseau, Voltaire, and Diderot, among other luminaries, supplied a growing readership within France, one whose needs could not be met by the monopolistic and tightly controlled Paris Guild. Darnton's book focuses principally on a publisher in Switzerland, one of the largest and whose archives are the most complete. Through the lens of this concern, he offers a sweeping view of the world of writing, publishing, and especially bookselling in pre-Revolutionary France--a vibrantly detailed inside look at a cut-throat industry that was struggling to keep up with the times and, if possible, make a profit off them. Featuring a fascinating cast of characters lofty idealists and down-and-dirty opportunists this new book expands upon on Darnton's celebrated work on book-publishing in France, most recently found in Literary Tour de France. Pirating and Publishing reveals how and why piracy brought the Enlightenment to every corner of France, feeding the ideas that would explode into revolution.

In the late-18th century, a group of publishers in what historian Robert Darnton calls the "Fertile Crescent" — countries located along the French border, stretching from Holland to Switzerland — pirated the works of prominent (and often banned) French writers and distributed them in France, where laws governing piracy were in flux and any notion of "copyright" very much in its infancy.

En 1730 dans un quartier parisien, des hommes vident des sacs de chats à moitié morts dans la cour de l'atelier. Puis, ils font un procès parodique aux chats. Les travailleurs jouent le rôle de gardes et on retrouve même un confesseur et un exécuteur public. Les animaux sont prononcés coupables et le confesseur leur administre les derniers sacrements. Les animaux sont ensuite attachés à une potence improvisée. Cette anecdote a été étudiée par l'historien américain Robert Darnton. Il a publié un essai sous le titre de Grand massacre des chats pour la première fois en 1984. Il a été traduit en 17 langues !   Pour soutenir financièrement la chaîne, trois choix: 1.

Como tudo que tratamos aqui no Fronteiras, vocês poderão entender que essa não é uma história assim tão simples – mas que também não é difícil de entender! Venham conosco nessa jornada de conhecimento e reflexões até os primórdios da modernidade europeia em busca das origens e das características do sistema absolutista! Neste episódio Descubra quais são as caraterísticas do absolutismo e entenda a relevância deste conceito para a nossa história. Conheça quais as teorias desenvolvidas pelos historiadores para explicar o surgimento deste regime na Europa ocidental, entenda o papel da Igreja e do contexto econômico e social neste processo. Analise conosco algumas das ideias dos principais pensadores do absolutismo e descubra como justificavam a concentração de poderes nas mãos dos monarcas. Por fim, entenda como eram as diferentes dinâmicas deste sistema de governo em diversas regiões europeias, quais eram e como funcionavam as limitações aos poderes reais.

O debate envolveu a conceituação do Iluminismo, assim como um breve panorama da historiografia acerca da ilustração.

Five decades ago, a young scholar named Robert Darnton followed up on a footnote that took him to the archives of the “Typographical Society of Neuchatel”(S.T.N.) in Switzerland, not far from the French border. Many years, and thousands of documents later, Professor Robert Darnton has published a new book, A Literary Tour de France: The World of Books on the Eve of the French Revolution (Oxford University Press, 2018). Apart from illuminating the everyday life of the trade that enabled and shaped French reading practices, the book is a methodological feat that mines an impressive array of sources to access the financial, legal, political, and cultural history of book distribution before the French Revolution. Following the trail of Jean-Francois Favager, a sales rep of the S.T.N. who toured France in 1778, Darnton's thirteen chapters trace his journey from Neuchatel, across the border into France, down the southeast to Lyon and Marseille, west towards Bordeaux, then north before crossing back to Besancon and home (with many stops in between). As the book pursues Favager's story, the reader learns about the challenges of travel by horse in this period, including border-crossings, the network of roads that connected French towns and cities in the eighteenth century, and the many obstacles that arose along the way. A history of the movement of foreign books into a French market, A Literary Tour de France also explores the histories of smuggling, piracy, contract and business law and values. Focused on the world of books in the French provinces, rather than Paris, this study offers today's reader insight into the demands and supplies of their eighteenth-century counterparts and the range of booksellers who sold their wares. The result is a rich and textured account of how and what many French people were able to read in the decades before the upheaval of 1789. I encourage all of you to visit the books companion website, including a treasure of primary sources that will enhance and extend the reading of A Literary Tour de France. Roxanne Panchasi is an Associate Professor in the Department of History at Simon Fraser University.

Focused on the world of books in the French provinces, rather than Paris, this study offers today’s reader insight into the demands and supplies of their eighteenth-century counterparts and the range of booksellers who sold their wares. The result is a rich and textured account of how and what many French people were able to read in the decades before the upheaval of 1789.

Five decades ago, a young scholar named Robert Darnton followed up on a footnote that took him to the archives of the “Typographical Society of Neuchatel”(S.T.N.) in Switzerland, not far from the French border. Many years, and thousands of documents later, Professor Robert Darnton has published a new book, A Literary Tour de France: The World of Books on the Eve of the French Revolution (Oxford University Press, 2018). Apart from illuminating the everyday life of the trade that enabled and shaped French reading practices, the book is a methodological feat that mines an impressive array of sources to access the financial, legal, political, and cultural history of book distribution before the French Revolution. Following the trail of Jean-Francois Favager, a sales rep of the S.T.N. who toured France in 1778, Darnton’s thirteen chapters trace his journey from Neuchatel, across the border into France, down the southeast to Lyon and Marseille, west towards Bordeaux, then north before crossing back to Besancon and home (with many stops in between).

From 2008: John Darnton is a 42-year New York Times veteran reporter, editor and foreign correspondent who was awarded two George Polk Awards for his coverage of Africa and Eastern Europe, and the Pulitzer Prize for his stories that were smuggled out of Poland during the period of martial law. He retired in 2005 and began teaching journalism at SUNY/New Paltz. And I’m guessing fewer co-workers at the old Grey Lady are on speaking terms with him, thanks to "Black & White and Dead All Over."

Og hvordan kan bibliotekene – kunnskapsformidlerne – bruke endringene til sin fordel? Bokhistoriker Robert Darnton er foregangsmann i den amerikanske debatten om digital litteratur. Et digitalt verdensbibliotek hvor kulturarven er åpen for alle er opplysningsfilosofens drøm, hevder han, og det naturlige skrittet videre i bokens historie.

The role of the library in the digital age is one of the compelling questions of our era. How are libraries coping with the promise and perils of our impending digital future? What urgent initiatives are underway to assure universal access to our print inheritance and to the digital communication forms of the future? How is the very idea of the library changing? These and related questions will engage our distinguished panelists, who represent both research and public libraries and two of whom serve on the steering committee for the Digital Public Library of America. Robert Darnton is Carl H. Pforzheimer University Professor at Harvard, Director of the Harvard University Library and one of America’s most distinguished historians. He serves on the steering committee of the Digital Public Library of America and has been a trustees of the New York Public Library since 1995. In a recent essay in the New York Review of Books, Darnton defended a NYPL plan to liquidate some branches in the system while renovating the main Fifth Avenue branch. The essay sparked a number of responses. In November of last year, Darnton provided a status report on the DPLA. Darnton is the author of many influential books including The Case for Books, Past, Present, and Future and The Great Cat Massacre. Susan Flannery is director of libraries for the City of Cambridge and past president of the Massachusetts Library Association.

A pioneering scholar of the Enlightenment and of the history of the book, Robert Darnton is the director of the University Library and the Carl H. Pforzheimer University Professor at Harvard. A former Rhodes Scholar and MacArthur Fellow, his books include The Business of the Enlightenment: A Publishing History of the Encyclopedie, The Great Cat Massacre: And Other Episodes in French Cultural History, and The Forbidden Best-Sellers of Prerevolutionary France. He has written extensively on the impact of digital technologies on the culture of print and on the responsibilities of libraries in the computer age. In this Forum, Darnton discussed and took questions about the emergence of the discipline of the history of the book, the future of books and reading, and his own vision of the ways in which new and old media can reinforce each other, strengthening and transforming the world of learning.
