A very interesting excerpt, that also suggests how agents’ archives can help to reveal what goes on “behind the scene”.

If you wish to read more on these issues in a larger context, I recommend this very insightful study of racial categorization, by a French historian. @paulschor.bsky.social www.abebooks.com/978019991785...

Anna Ferrando’s work on Italian agents contributes to a growing body of scholarship on agents in Europe and the U.S. This heretofore neglected figure in publishing history is becoming an object of interest for both book historians and literary sociologists.

“By focusing on independent presses, cultural organizations, and translators, we can better understand—and even anticipate—future trends in global literature.” As noted for German books, Marquez’s success can also possibly be attributed in part to his fabulous agent, Carmen Balcells.

In recent weeks, a number of people have mentioned returning to this article of mine from 2021. Here's a gift link.

Just out/appena uscita! JEMS 14 (OA from Firenze UP), with 12 terrific articles on "The Politics of Book History--Then and Now". A great pleasure to edit this issue with @georginaemw.bsky.social, a brilliant collaborator (whose book, Paper and the Making of Early Modern Literature, is out soon!)

I want to boost this master work by Dr Edda Fields-Black, “Combee” shows how you can recover Black histories of resistance in unlikely places. I got to meet her while she was writing this book when I was doing similar research on the enslaved owned by the Calhouns at Clemson U. 🗃️
