description :

Robert Darnton's "An Early Information Society" is the first electronic article produced by the American Historical Review. It is an experiment in using the new electronic medium as a means of disseminating historical scholarship. The editors hope that in addition to producing an enhanced version of Darnton's essay, this “e-article” will provide some useful examples of ways to present historical arguments and materials through electronic publication. This site contains an electronic version of the presidential address with links to a digitized map of Paris that includes cafés where police gathered information about political activities, police reports from those cafés, illustrations from the era, audio of versions of songs that conveyed political news (sung by french performer Hélène Delavault), texts of the song lyrics, and an essay by Darnton analyzing those songs.

notre point de vue :

Connu pour ses prises de position en faveur de l'édition électronique, Robert Darnton esquisse ici un travail dans ce sens.
