Présentation Mémoires du livre – Studies in Book Culture est une revue bilingue en libre accès, disponible sur le portail Erudit. Elle est consacrée au livre et à l’imprimé sous toutes leurs formes, qu’il s’agisse des livres anciens, des périodiques ou des livres numériques. Tout ce qui concerne le passé, le présent et le futur du livre y trouve sa place : les acteurs et les institutions de la chaîne de production du livre, les matérialités et les contenus, les pratiques et les usages. Les pouvoirs qui s’exercent à l’intérieur du monde du livre intéressent la revue autant que les pouvoirs de l’imprimé. Mémoires du livre – Studies in Book Culture s’attache à mettre en lumière l’ensemble du système-livre, de la production à la réception : on analysera ainsi chacun des maillons de la chaîne, de l'auteur au lecteur, en passant par l'éditeur, le diffuseur, le traducteur, le libraire ou encore le bibliothécaire. Résolument interdisciplinaire (histoire, études littéraires, économie, sociologie, etc.), la revue est aussi ouverte aux réflexions sur les identités – de genre, de culture, de groupe social – telles qu’elles s’expriment à travers l’histoire du livre. Mémoires du livre – Studies in Book Culture est dirigée par Anthony Glinoer, lequel est assisté à la direction par Eli MacLaren, Marie-Pier Luneau et Josée Vincent. Protocole de rédaction
