Abstract(s)
Personagem-filtro, intérprete, mas também interventor, prescrevendo, legitimando e ordenando o universo tipográfico, o editor surge como figura múltipla e socialmente investida de atributos e práticas mediadoras na sua relação com o dado textual. Produtor de valor e materialidade, o editor inscreve o projecto do livro num espaço social colaborativo de trabalho, o campo da edição. Este artigo procura sistematizar teoricamente alguns tópicos relativos à articulação do editor com a construção social do campo editorial e a edificação da cultura impressa. Empreender semelhante exploração é abdicar forçosamente de uma visão linear, unidimensional e historicamente asséptica do mundo social e cultural do livro, cuja morfologia e suportes conhecem crescentemente os desafios da desmaterialização.
A sort of filter, and interpreter, whereas also interposer, prescribing, legitimizing and organizing the typographical universe, the publisher rises as a multiple figure socially invested of mediating features and practices in her relation with the textual fact. Producer of value-adding, and materiality, the publisher inscribes the project of the book in a socially collaborative working space, the publishing field. This article intends to theoretically frame a number of topics regarding the articulation of the publisher with the social construction of the publishing field and the fabrication of print culture. To undertake such an approach forcefully means to relinquish a perspective that views the social and cultural world of the book (whose morphology and avatars progressively face the challenges of the dematerialization) as being the result of a one dimensional, homogenous, and aseptic history.
