The French bookseller, publisher and printer Paul Delalain
(1840-1924) was the author of several studies on the history of the
book and of the printing press, including L'imprimerie et la
librairie a Paris de 1789 a 1813 (1899) and Les libraires et
imprimeurs de l'Academie francaise de 1634 a 1793 (1907). First
published in 1891, this book contains the French translation of
Volumes 1 and 2 of the Latin Chartularium Universitatis
Parisiensis. These records of statutes and regulations, originating
from the University of Paris between 1200-86 and 1286-1350
respectively, detail the conditions under which booksellers and
stationers were allowed to practise their trade, and give
intriguing glimpses of the people involved, including Englishmen
and Scots. Delalain's introduction to these documents studies the
status of Parisian booksellers in the thirteenth and fourteenth
centuries, shedding light on such points as the difference between
a libraire and a stationnaire.
