Marie Lezowski, L'Abrégé du monde - Une histoire sociale de la bibliothèque Ambrosienne (v. 1590 - v. 1660)
Submitted by ccarlin on 10 February 2016 - 11:12amParis, Classiques Garnier, Bibliothèque d'histoire de la Renaissance, 2016. ISBN 978-2-8124-5075-4. 59€.
En 1609, l'inauguration de la bibliothèque Ambrosienne a un retentissement européen: son fondateur, Frédéric Borromée, a voulu y créer un lieu d'invention savante, autant que de conservation. Ce livre retrace un demi-siècle de l'histoire des lettrés de la bibliothèque, entre engagement dans le monde et repli sur le livre, dans une capitale de la Réforme catholique.

Philippe Quinault, Théâtre complet. Tome I - Tragédies
Submitted by ccarlin on 10 February 2016 - 11:05amEd. Carine Barbafieri. Paris, Classiques Garnier, coll. Bibliothèque du théâtre français 39, 2016. ISBN 978-2-8124-5113-3. 49€.
Avant de ne se consacrer plus qu'à l'opéra, Philippe Quinault servit abondamment le théâtre déclamé et composa, entre 1658 et 1671, quatre tragédies: La Mort de Cyrus, Astrate, Pausanias et Bellérophon. Ces pièces méritent d'être réexaminées à l'aune de la théorie et de la pratique dramatiques des années 1660.

Goulven Oiry, La Comédie française et la ville (1550-1650) - L'Iliade parodique
Submitted by ccarlin on 6 February 2016 - 9:11pmParis, Classiques Garnier, 2016. ISBN 978-2-8124-3820-2. 59€.
Cet ouvrage analyse la comédie française des années 1550-1650 à la lumière et le rapport qu'elle entretient à la ville. Il défend une lecture urbaine du théâtre comique révélant ainsi une anthropologie de la vie citadine. La cité représentée à travers la comédie rapporte une société en voie de théâtralisation.
