This book re-reads the tangled relations of book culture and
literary culture in the early nineteenth century by restoring to
view the figure of the bookman and the effaced history of his book
clubs. As outliers inserting themselves into the matrix of literary
production rather than remaining within that of reception, both
provoked debate by producing, writing, and circulating books in
ways that expanded fundamental points of literary orientation in
lateral directions not coincident with those of the literary
sphere. Deploying a wide range of historical, archival and literary
materials, the study combines the history and geography of books,
cultural theory, and literary history to make visible a bookish
array of alterative networks, genres, and locations that were
obscured by the literary sphere in establishing its authority as
arbiter of the modern book.
