Description

Le siècle des Lumières constitue un moment important dans l’émergence de la littérature pour la jeunesse en France. La production destinée aux jeunes lecteurs rassemble alors non seulement des ouvrages initialement rédigés pour ce public, mais aussi des réécritures qui lui sont adressées. Éditions adaptées, abrégés, imitations plus libres : ces réécritures s’attachent à des œuvres fort diverses, des classiques de l’Antiquité aux fictions modernes, en passant par les discours historique et scientifique. Elles forment un genre littéraire qui se consolide au XVIIIe et au début du XIXesiècle, en intégrant plusieurs questions qui sont au cœur de la pensée des Lumières, notamment en matière d’éducation. Le présent ouvrage se propose d’explorer cette production peu étudiée jusqu’à ce jour. Les contributions abordent les multiples facettes du genre, en s’intéressant aux réécritures des œuvres de différents auteurs : Cicéron, Plutarque, La Bruyère, Rousseau, Perrault, Villeneuve, Defoe, Cervantès, Fielding, Newton, Raynal, Buffon. En se penchant sur les enjeux liés à l’apparition de la littérature pour le jeune public, elles jettent un regard original sur la culture écrite des Lumières.

 ---

The Age of Enlightenment was an important moment in the emergence of children’s literature in France. Literary output for young readers included not only original works, but also rewrites of existing texts to suit this particularly type of audience. Adapted editions, abridgements, texts based loosely on those from which they draw original inspiration: these rewritings are present across a diverse range of works, from the classics of antiquity to modern fiction, through historical and scientific discourse. They form a literary genre that was consolidated in the eighteenth- and early nineteenth-centuries and address various questions at the heart of Enlightenment thought, particularly in terms of education. The present collection takes an orignal look at the writing culture of the Enlightenment by exploring this neglected set of texts for younger audiences. Contributions address the many facets of the genre, focusing on the rewritings of works by different authors, including Cicéron, Plutarque, La Bruyère, Rousseau, Perrault, Villeneuve, Defoe, Cervantès, Fielding, Newton, Raynal, Buffon.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
