Edward Gordon Duff (1863-1924) was a bibliographer and librarian with a particular interest in early printed books. He was librarian of the John Rylands Library, Manchester, from 1893 to 1900, and Sandars Reader in Bibliography at Cambridge in 1899, 1904 and 1911. Alongside research and writing he also did freelance cataloguing. Duff's work set new standards of accuracy in bibliography, which he considered a science. This study of the early London book trade contains the text of Duff's 1899 Sandars Lectures. William Caxton began printing in England in 1476 at Westminster, but most printers and booksellers working in England at that time were foreigners. Duff covers Westminster and London printing separately, and devotes individual chapters to the related trades of bookselling and bookbinding, which were often carried out by the same person. This reissue also contains Duff's lecture English Printing on Vellum, delivered in 1900.

CE LIVRE EST NÉ DE LA VOLONTÉ DE DÉCLINER une piste que nous n’avions pu aborder dans notre précédent ouvrage, Le Livre et ses espaces, qui envisageait le livre dans sa mise en scène spatiale, réelle et métaphorique, que ce soit à travers l’espace du livre - ses dimensions -, l’espace dans le livre - la typologie de la page -, ou l’espace hors du livre - la bibliothèque par exemple. Dans L’Esthétique du livre par contre, c’est le livre comme lieu d’expériences sensibles que nous souhaitons traiter. Mais que l’on ne s’y méprenne pas ; c’est plus la question de la perception du livre comme objet, industriel ou non, que ses liens éventuels avec la création artistique qui nous intéresse. Et plutôt que d’en rester à la simple analyse du beau livre avec les deux sous-entendus qui l’accompagnent : le beau livre serait le livre d’artiste ou le livre d’art, et l’esthétique du livre l’affaire exclusive des bibliophiles, nous avons préféré partir des perceptions suscitées par l’objet livre pour creuser ses dimensions esthétiques et les impressions qu’il engendre.
