Contributors discuss the role that these catalogues played in bookselling and book auctions, as well as in guiding the tastes of book collectors and inspiring some of the greatest libraries of the era. Catalogues in the Low Countries, Britain, Germany, France and the Baltic region are studied as important products of the early modern book trade, and as reconstructive tools for the history of the book. These catalogues offer a goldmine of information on the business of books, and they allow scholars to examine questions on the distribution and ownership of books that would otherwise be extremely difficult to pursue [4e de couverture]Sujet - Nom commun: Catalogues de libraires -- Europe 17e siècle | Catalogues de libraires -- Europe 18e siècle | Livres, Vente aux enchères -- Europe 17e siècle | Livres, Vente aux enchères -- Europe 18e siècle | Bibliothèques privées -- Europe 17e siècle | Bibliothèques privées -- Europe 18e siècle
