contents 3 ONLINE BOOKS AND JOURNALS ONLINE BOOKS

All collections from Classiques Garnier are published simultaneously in print and online format. New titles are introduced into the online platform as soon as they are published in print format. However, this does not result in the online publication of isolated texts in pdf, but the creation of a database for each collection in image-hidden text and full-text modes, allowing for complex searches in structured texts. The Classiques Garnier Online collection thus offers a complete set of reference works (thousands of online books and online journals are currently available). This collection is composed of annual updates together with a full online backlist, allowing for a library to choose one or the other, or both. By choosing both options, a library allows its readers to benefit from the entirety of a rich and constantly evolving collection.

RESEARCH FIELDS Literature, linguistics, humanities, lexicography, languages, history, philosophy, law, economic sciences, social sciences.

17th CENTURY

Lire le xviie siècle / Reading the Seventeenth Century [ISSN 2257-915X] Edited by Delphine Denis and Christian Biet The title of this collection says it all.

Several series, directed by the most competent specialists, will sketch the contours of this investigation, focusing on novels, pastorals, tragedy, law, science, religion, music, free thought, utopias, mysticism, travel literature, etc. An enriched vision of the contrasts of the seventeenth century should emerge from these strong lines of enquiry.

24 ONLINE JOURNALS BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE FRENCH LITERATURE (BLF) Bibliographie de la littérature française (BLF) The Bibliography of French Literature

The online BLF is updated daily, in sync with leading scientific publications

HISTORY

The Bibliographie de la littérature française (BLF) was originally integrated (since 1894) into the quarterly issues of the Revue d’Histoire littéraire de la France (RHLF), and since 2002, has been an annual directory published in special editions. It gathers together the references of the French-speaking literature from the sixteenth century to the present day.

The BLF was published by Armand Colin publishers until 1997 and then by Presses Universitaires de France. It is often referred to as the ‘Rancœur’ by specialists and librarians, the name of the custodian who signed the lists in each edition of the RHLF between 1949 and 1995 and, since 1986, whole volumes.

Since 1996, the online BLF has been the result of the work undertaken by a specialized group at the Bibliothèque nationale de France, who are in charge of its creation, and the help of the Société d’histoire littéraire de France. The digital publisher of the BLF, Classiques Garnier Numérique, ensures the daily updating of the database and the multilingual search inteface.

26 Bibliography of the french literature (BLF) A BIBLIOGRAPHY UPDATED DAILY

The online BLF is updated daily, in sync with the rate of publications. It therefore constitutes a unique work instrument for researchers, teachers, students, and all those seeking to inform themselves about French literature, specializing in particular writers, subjects or periods.

More than 150,000 detailed notices from 1998 to the present day are currently online, approximately 17,000 summaries, to which 72,000 articles from collected works are added (see in particular the ‘commentary’ part of the notice).

Earlier periods (1997-1979 and 1948-1894) are the object of a programme of retrospective conversion which will add more than 500,000 references to the bibliography over the next few years.

The dynamic character of the formula and its organisation at many levels (fields and groups of fields) allows the user to create complex crossed searches very easily. The possibilities for searches, increased even further by truncation and logical operators, are thus superior to those enabled by a classic, static formula.

The user can also select results, add notices to his or her selection, save them, and export them in numerous formats (Html, Dublin Core, Mods, EndNotes, RefWorks, etc.).

Exported bibliographic notices, of the entirety of results or a personalised selection of notices, can be downloaded or sent by email. Tools for the selection or de-selection of groups of results or lines of notices (select a tick-box) allow each user to create a full bibliographic list established from multiple isolated searches.

Bibliography of the french literature (BLF) 27 DATABASES

28 databases EDITORIAL PRINCIPLES

The works published by Classiques Garnier, dedicated to serving the international community of humanities scholars, satisfy the three criteria of ‘numerical philology’ defined by Claude Blum in the 1990s, professor at Paris-Sorbonne University.

The notion of Corpus. The edition of a text in electronic form takes on its significance only if it is considered as part of a coherent and full set, aiming for exhaustivity (the complete works of a given author, of a period in time, of a literary genre, etc.). The electronic edition of a work, for example, will be constituted by the set of all the original editions of that work published during the author’s lifetime (the electronic edition of Montaigne’s Essays, for example, will thus include all the editions published during the author’s lifetime: 1580, 1582, 1587, 1588 and the edition of the manuscript prepared by Montaigne shortly before his death, the ‘Bordeaux copy’). For reasons of physical impossibility, completeness is sometimes unattainable and a selection will be made from editions published in the author’s lifetime. In such a case, we will choose the last edition considered to represent a state of the text corresponding to the author’s intention. In the absence of an edition in the author’s lifetime, we will choose the first posthumous edition. This basic principle may be adapted by the publishing committee, which may choose, for scholarly reasons, an edition other than the last in the author’s lifetime or the first posthumous edition. It is always deemed better to edit the complete set of editions published during the author’s lifetime and/or posthumous editions, as has been done for the works of Montaigne.

Exact identical reproduction of works, in every aspect. The electronic editor will refrain from any judgement, selection or destruction of data provided by the original work. All signs are regarded as being integral parts of the work and as being significant within that context. The electronic edition, as an edition of our historical heritage, will be constituted according to the rules of ‘diplomatic editing’, rigorously respecting the original text. In ‘numerical philology’ for instance, the original pagination is respected, with a page from the reference edition corresponding to a screen-page; all the pages, including blank pages, are maintained and numbered. The same goes for all the data on the page, collation zones, type-face (large and small capitals for example), written forms, spelling (typos will be corrected in order to facilitate electronic searches, but will be indicated in critical notes). This choice of the original pagination is not a light one, since it implies the existence of heavy tagging, i.e. the existence of a record of each page – and not only of parts and chapters of the work as can be found in most electronic editions (since the latter exclude any research based on information as to the original pagination, which is the basis of all research in the academic field).

The electronic edition in text-mode will be associated, by means of a hypertextual link, page by page, to the facsimile edition of the original text (image mode) so that, by a click, the reader can refer back to the visual aspect of the original (this method is now being extended to all our databases).

editorial principles 29 SEARCH FUNCTIONS

The tagging of Classiques Garnier digital books and databases allows specific searches on all the different parts of a given corpus of texts (pre-texts, texts, post-texts, parts, chapters, etc.), while operators allow the user to refine his/her search in full-text (search for structures, typographical searches, etc.). All search-fields can be combined thanks to dynamic cues which produce results in real time. For each search-field, the user has a self-explanatory and complete index corresponding to that field at his/her disposal. The entire content of that field can thus be grasped and judgment can be made as to the reliability of the texts proposed.

RESEARCH SOFTWARE

Babel software offers the most efficient functions for searches and database consultation. Texts are presented in a multi-window display allowing full access at any time to the work, the author, the edition, and to move from one text to another. Users can insert bookmarks, write personal notes, save the history of their own research, and print and save the contents of the database. Moreover, they can create a corpus using their own criteria and work on this selection alone.

30 search functions DICTIONARIES, GRAMMARS AND ENCYCLOPEDIAS Grand Corpus des dictionnaires de langue française du ixe au xxe siècle Great Corpus of Dictionaries (9th to 20th Century)

A complete set of reference dictionaries for French language studies The Great Corpus of Dictionaries gathers the twenty-four most important dictionaries on French language with 200,000 pages (2,500 signs per page), 900,000 entries and definitions in total. It is the largest collection available on the subject today.

Ranging from Frédéric Godefroy’s the Dictionary of Old French Language (9th to 15th Century) (1881-1902), the “the essential element” of Old French lexicography (Georges Matoré) to the Dictionaries of the Académie Française (1932-1935) devoted to modern French and characterised by an ever more reflexive and well-founded art of definition and by the intention to give a faithful reflection of the twentieth century, the corpus includes: – the Historical Dictionary of Old French Language by La Curne de Sainte-Palaye, “an incomparable tool for the in-depth study of ancient French vocabulary” (Gilles Roussineau). – the Dictionary of the Sixteenth Century (1925-1967) by Edmond Huguet, the essential reference dictionary for the language of the Renaissance – the bilingual dictionaries, Latin-French (Estienne and Nicot) or English-French (Cotgrave) – the dictionaries by Gilles Ménage (1650 and 1694) which gather together a vast quantity of information on the presumed origins of the French language (regional and vernacular languages). – the dictionaries by Richelet and Furetière, dictionaries that played a part in establishing the reputation of the French language, thus supporting a linguistic policy which aimed at giving world-wide influence to French culture. – the Dictionaries of the Académie Française, from its beginnings in 1687 to the present day, thus representing linguistic policy in France since the seventeenth century. – the Dictionary of Arts and Sciences published in Paris under the direction of Thomas Corneille, perfectly completing the Dictionaries of the Académie Française in the fields of the arts, sciences and technics. – the Addition to the Dictionary of the Académie Française, under the direction of Louis Barré, tooks over that role in 1842. Dictionary of the Académie Française thus became an “Universal Dictionary” (Preface, p. XVIII).

32 Dictionaries, Grammars and Encyclopedias Frédéric Godefroy Dictionnaire de l’ancienne langue française et de tous ses dialectes du ixe au xve siècle Frédéric Godefroy, Dictionary of Old French Language (9th to 20th Century)

The most important reference work for the study of the Old French A major dictionary of more than 20 million words, the Dictionnaire de l’ancienne langue française constitutes, alongside the Altfranzösisches Wörterbuch by Adolf Tobler and Erhard Lommatzsch, the “essential element of Old French lexicography’” (Georges Matoré). The dictionary contains more than 160,000 entries. It presents the full richness of Old French language, with words from the Middle Ages which are currently inexistant in modern language or have acquired new meanings. Collecting examples from all kinds of sources – printed papers, books, and library archives – F. Godefroy traced the history of words in spoken language, dialects, and names of people and places. In short, Godefroy’s Dictionnaire gathers together the richest collection of words and forms possible. Godefroy collected “well-constructed and long-term” words used by the major authors of the eleventh, twelfth, and thirteenth centuries (about 370,000 extracts from authors). Yet he also explored the fifteenth century, collecting scientific and legal terms found in French and Latin archives. ‘For the sake of knowledge’: Godefroy dedicated his life to the dictionary. Its completion and improvement were his major aims. He worked tirelessly on it, providing corrections for each volume, adding two and a half volumes of supplementary material, and later extending his field of research to archaic and scholarly words and words of the sixteenth century. With the Dictionnaire de l’ancienne langue française, F. Godefroy created an invaluable lexicographical treasure ‘of great importance in French Studies’ (J. Monfrin).

Dictionaries, Grammars and Encyclopedias 33 La Curne de Sainte-Palaye Dictionnaire historique de l’ancien langage français depuis son origine jusqu’au siècle de louis XIV

La Curne de Sainte-Palaye, Historical Dictionary of Old French Language

Essential for the study of Old French La Curne de Sainte-Palaye’s Dictionnaire historique de l’ancien langage français depuis son origine jusqu’au siècle de Louis XIV is “an indispensable working tool for further study of the vocabulary of early French” (Gilles Roussineau). The dictionary is an essential complement to Frédéric Godefroy’s Dictionnaire de l’ancienne langue française et de tous ses dialectes du ixe au xve siècle and to Edmond Huguet’s Dictionnaire de la langue du xvie siècle. Born in 1697, Jean-Baptiste de La Curne de Sainte-Palaye developed the Historical Dictionary of the Old French Language or the Glossary of the French Language from its Origin to the Reign of Louis XIV. Unfortunately it was not published during the author’s lifetime. It is thanks to the diligence of Leopold Favre, a scholarly polygraph from the second half of the nineteenth century, that La Curne’s monumental work was published in ten volumes between 1875 and 1882. With its detailed glossary and extensive, diverse corpus (literary, historical and didactic texts of the twelfth, thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, printed material of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, charts, ancient inventories, etc.), La Curne’s Dictionary is an invaluable instrument for historians of the French language, and particularly for specialists of the Middle Ages. With its 56,000 entries, the Historical Dictionary of Old French Lanuage of La Curne de Sainte-Palaye is an indispensible tool for those studying Old and Middle French vocabulary. La Curne’s remarkable skill in elucidating the specific meaning of words and classifying their various connotations, and his study of rare words, idioms and proverbs of Old and Middle French, make his work a priceless resource.

34 Dictionaries, Grammars and Encyclopedias Edmond Huguet Dictionnaire de la langue française du xvie siècle Edmond Huguet, Dictionary of the Sixteenth Century

The main dictionary for the language of the Renaissance (15th and 16th centuries) Much like Frédéric Godefroy’s Dictionnaire de l’ancienne langue française and Adolf Tobler and Erhard Lommatzsch’s Altfranzösisches Wörterbuch for medieval language, Edmond Huguet’s Dictionnaire de la langue française du xvie siècle (1925- 1967) constitutes the essential reference source for Renaissance language. With more than 100,000 entries, the Dictionnaire features nearly every word of Renaissance language. To achieve this feat, Huguet did not limit his work to the sixteenth century: he often explored the fifteenth century, linking his work to Godefroy’s dictionary to put his lexicon into perspective. He also extended his work to the seventeenth century to provide depth to his dictionary and build a true “history of words.” Huguet consulted thousands of texts to establish his list of obsolete words. Among them, he emphasized borrowed words that came mostly from Latin or Italian, words that had enjoyed great success in the sixteenth century before disappearing from common usage. Fully aware that a history of words is also a history of their changes in meaning, Huguet drew up a list of thousands of words or faux amis which are deceptively familiar to a modern reader. For words from the Renaissance still in use Huguet gives the exact date of their appearance. Huguet also gives the spelling and translation of words in modern French. Under each entry he includes all its orthographical forms throughout the ages, and gives a precise, nuanced translation into modern French. The number and variety of provided examples reaches far beyond what is necessary to determine the precise meaning of the words. Huguet was not content simply to compose a lexicographical work. His project was much larger: he aimed to provide readers and historians with the full range of documents he had accumulated on the vocabulary of the “long” sixteenth century.

Dictionaries, Grammars and Encyclopedias 35 Dictionnaires des xvie et xviie siècles Dictionaries of the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries

The founding dictionaries of the French language This corpus of the Dictionaries of the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries contains the ten most important dictionaries published in this period. Each contributed, in its own way, to the construction and consolidation of French lexicography and language. This database is presented in arborescent form, allowing access at any moment to a particular dictionary at one’s chosen entry point and easy passage from one dictionary to another. Beyond full-text searches, cross-searches can be made in the following fields: one or several dictionaries, entries, and sub- entries, grammatical categories, signs of domain or usage, definitions of a word, and entire articles. Cues are given for all fields. This database of dictionaries modifies and modernizes research on language history and lexicography. Three kinds of books constitute this dictionary database: – bilingual dictionaries, Latin-French (Estienne and Nicot) or English-French (Cotgrave) – the dictionaries of Gilles Ménage (1650 and 1694), which gather together a vast quantity of information on the presumed origins of the French language (regional and vernacular languages). – dictionaries which played a part in establishing the reputation of the French language and thus support a linguistic policy which aimed to give world-wide influence to French culture: those of Richelet, Furetière, the Académie Française and Thomas Corneille.

36 Dictionaries, Grammars and Encyclopedias Corpus des dictionnaires de l’Académie française du xviie au xxe siècle Dictionaries of the Académie Française (17th to 20th Century)

The complete set of dictionaries of the Académie Française from the 17th to 20th century This Corpus includes all thirteen dictionaries produced by the Académie Française from its beginning in 1687 to the present day. It thus charts linguistic policy in France since the seventeenth century onwards. The first edition of 1694 may be regarded as the first linguistic manifestation of political power, and as the first attempt to create an image for the French language, by choosing to deal with common, everyday language. The next three editions (1718, 1740 and 1762) continue the work of the former Academicians with certain modifications and innovations. Spelling was modified in 1740 and follows modern usage. Over time, quotations appeared. The general outlook of the 1762 edition was influenced by Enlightenment philosophy. Published at the time of the French Revolution the 1798 edition produced definitions in tune with the new revolutionary ideology. With the 1835 edition, the Dictionnaires de l’Académie française entered the modern era, and became the bible for the most important writers of the nineteenth century. The layout and nomenclature of the preceding editions were revised; moreover, this edition marks the change from the language of the monarchy to the language of the republic. The 1878 edition simply provided a supplement to the excellent 1835 edition, with additional entries to reflect the evolution of the language. The edition published in 1932-1935 is the only complete edition of the Dictionnaires de l’Académie française devoted to modern language. It is characterised by a modern, well-founded art of definition and by its intention to offer a faithful reflection of the twentieth century. The next edition is still in the process of being composed. The Dictionnaire des Arts et des Sciences (Dictionary of Arts and Sciences) published in 1694 came to complete the Academic dictionary of usage in the fields of the arts, sciences and technology. It was published in Paris under the direction of Thomas Corneille. The Complément du Dictionnaire de l’Académie (Supplement to the Dictionary of the Academy), under the direction of Louis Barré, took over that role in 1842. Dictionnaires de l’Académie française (Dictionaries of the French Academy) thus became a “Universal Dictionary” (Preface, p. XVIII).

Dictionaries, Grammars and Encyclopedias 39 Encyclopédie ou Dictionnaire raisonné des connoissances humaines (Encyclopédie d’Yverdon) Yverdon Enclopedia

An encyclopedia of European knowledge and culture from the 18th century The Encyclopédie of Yverdon is a set of fifty-eight in-quarto volumes published between 1770 and 1780. Building on the foundations laid by Diderot, the work aims to establish an “encyclopaedic system of knowledge.” It aims to give the encyclopaedia a European scope, considering the theoretical foundations of, and therefore considerably enlarging, the human field of knowledge.

A EUROPEAN ENCYCLOPAEDIA THE DIGITAL EDITION The director of the Encyclopédie was J.B. De Felice (1723- This major electronic version presents the full text of the 1789). This native Italian scholar had been living in Encyclopédie with fine tagging. It gives the text in both Yverdon since 1762. He gathered together a European original and modern written form. The edition contains team of scientists and scholars, organised into three groups: the facsimile (image mode) of the entire Encyclopédie with the Swiss (canton of Vaud, Neuchâtel, Bern), the French an active link to the text mode.

Dictionaries, Grammars and Encyclopedias 41 Émile Littré Dictionnaire de la langue française Émile Littré, Dictionary of the French Language

The first dictionary to illustrate both philological lexicography and historical lexicography at the same time The Dictionnaire de la langue française by Émile Littré (Paris, 1873, and 1877 for the Supplément) inaugurated a new era of lexicography. Illustrative of philological lexicography, it was founded on considerable textual documentation (more than 300,000 quotations taken from historical French literature). The Dictionary also illustrated historical lexicography, as Littré’s understanding of the description of language relied on a historical chain of linguistic facts. This lexicographic enterprise is particular in that it did not remain limited to its own epoch. Rather, it encouraged a tradition which is still alive and admired today. The electronic edition by Classiques Garnier is the result of considerable lexicographic and scholarly work, aiming to make the resources and riches of this exceptional dictionary, insufficiently known and appreciated, available to users. Users have the possibility to search each rubric of Littré’s entries: definition, comments, synonyms, history, and etymology. It is also possible to search the entries in other categories, for example, by grammatical category, pronunciation, variants or markers of usage or field. Quotations and proverbs each have a dedicated search screen, facilitating the use and study of this unrivalled corpus. The potential of the numerous cross-references and links between definitions established by Littré has been fully realised thanks to a vast, classified network with specific search fields. The new digital edition of the Littré deserves a place in each and every library.

42 Dictionaries, Grammars and Encyclopedias Grand Corpus des grammaires françaises, des remarques et des traités sur la langue (xive-xviie siècle) Great Corpus of French Language Grammars and Remarks on Language (14th to 17th Century)

The Grand Corpus des grammaires françaises, des remarques et des traités sur la langue (xive-xviie siècles) (Great Corpus of French- language-Grammars and Remarks on Language (14th to 17th Century)) brings together in one database the Corpus of French Grammars of the Renaissance, the Corpus of French Grammars of the Seventeenth Century and the Corpus of Remarks on the French Language (17th Century). This is close to representing all the French grammars from the fourteenth to the seventeenth century. Each grammar is presented both in a digital form, which faithfully transcribes the original text and also as a fac-simile. The Great Corpus is unique in offering search options ranging from simple consultations to advanced academic research, meeting the needs of scholars and students alike. For instance, the user can conduct searches on different levels of the text’s structure. This includes not only full-text searches (on the different words of the text, on the metatext or metalinguistic terms), but also searches on specific parts of the texts: the pre-texts, post-texts, chapters, sub-chapters, paragraphs, notes (editor’s and author’s notes, the marginalia, etc.) as well as examples and quotations. Features of the search engine include author searches which can be refined, allowing the distinction of the author of a grammar (according to the date of composition, edition, printing, etc. of the text) and an author cited in a grammar (source of an example, quotation or opinion, or as a historical or mythological figure). Hundreds of combinations are therefore possible, allowing each user to employ theGreat Corpus according to his/her own needs, whether these are simple, one-off queries or are part of a more detailed, long-term research project. Created by a team of internationally recognised researchers, the Great Corpus is an essential resource for every consultation or research library. To enable systematic use, the three collections included in the Great Corpus offer teachers, researchers, and students a vast range of research tools: full-text searches, thesauruses of authors (5 categories), titles (3 categories), examples and quotations. The Great Corpus provides the option of creating one’s own working corpus, extracting and exporting the results. Such an exceptional collection will clearly give new life to research on the history of the French language and the history of French linguistic ideas.

Dictionaries, Grammars and Encyclopedias 43 Corpus des grammaires françaises de la Renaissance Corpus of French Grammars of the Renaissance

The first French grammars are characterised by their great depth and extreme diversity. This genre was not as narrowly defined as it is today, and could therefore correspond to a variety of practices. Renaissance grammars could offer descriptions of the French language, and also teaching methodology to foreigners interested in learning new idioms and European culture. The books are of very variable length, from a few manuscript pages to 1,000 printed pages. The language in which they are written also varies: French, of course, but also English, German and occasionally Latin. For the first time, an electronic corpus allows scholars to carry out sophisticated and multiple researches in books hitherto neglected. To facilitate systematic research, the Corpus des grammaires de la Renaissance (Corpus of French Grammars of the Renaissance) provides the user with a great number of research tools: full-text research, thesaurus of authors (5 categories) and of titles (3 categories), and a thesaurus of examples and quotations. The user can thus build up his/her own corpus, extract and export results, etc.

Besides the interest in the French language, integral to their composition, these works have very different ambitions: to stabilize common language by identifying it with its “best” form; using French (and several other languages) to define “general” rules of the “art of talking”; to help foreigners (particularly English and Flemish) to learn the French language. They are written in French, but frequently reference other languages (Masset’s Acheminement is translated into Latin, La Grue frequently references Latin, Mauger for English). They can assume different forms: didactic treatises, dialogues, lists of vocabulary, etc. The use of certain methods is reciprocal: Mauger’s grammar allows an English reader to learn French and a French reader to learn English. The representation of these works is as close as possible to the original.

To explore these texts, the Corpus des grammaires françaises du xviie siècle (Corpus of French Grammars of the Seventeenth Century) offers teachers, researchers and students a vast range of search tools: full-text searches, thesaurus of authors (5 categories), titles (3 categories), example and quotations. The user can thus build up his/her own corpus, extract and export results, etc.

Dictionaries, Grammars and Encyclopedias 45 Corpus des remarques sur la langue française (xviie siècle) Corpus of Remarks on the French Language (17th Century)

The Corpus des remarques sur la langue française (xviie siècle) (Corpus of Remarks on the French Language (17th Century)) presents a typically French genre which first appeared in the middle of the seventeenth century. These volumes of remarks, observations or reflections on the language do not generally deal with basic grammar, but rather with its peculiarities or particular points of usage which posed a problem for those who were the best speakers of French. The authors of these volumes of remarks treat all aspects of usage – pronunciation, spelling, morphology, syntax, vocabulary and style – but abandon the traditional format of grammars. This Corpus is an indispensable resource, not only for specialists of sevententh century language and literature, but also for all those interested in the history of the French language, its codification and standardisation. The database contains the classic texts (the remarks of Vaugelas, Ménage and Bouhours); collections which adopt an alphabetical presentation (Alemand, Andry de Boisregard); texts which criticise Vaugelas and call for greater freedom of usage (Dupleix, La Mothe Le Vayer); volumes which are produced by the Académie Française (the Académie’s comments on Vaugelas, and its decisions collected by Tallemant), as well as some less well-known texts (Buffet’s observations addressed to a female audience, Macé’s volume which includes a compilation of observations alongside a general and rational grammar). To enable systematic use, the Corpus of Remarks on the French Language (17th Century) offers teachers, researchers and students a vast range of search tools: full-text searches, thesauruses of authors (5 categories), titles (3 categories), examples and quotations. It provides the option of creating one’s own working corpus, extracting and exporting the results. Such an exceptional collection will clearly give new life to research on the history of the French language and the history of French linguistic ideas.

46 Dictionaries, Grammars and Encyclopedias Corpus Pierre Bayle (dictionnaire; œuvres) Pierre Bayle Corpus (Dictionary; Complete Works)

The Pierre Bayle Corpus brings together all of Pierre Bayle’s literary and philosophical works from 1684 to 1731, as well as his unrivaled Historical and Critical Dictionary, compiled from 1693 to 1696, presented here in the reference edition published by Pierre Des Maizeaux in 1740. The Pierre Bayle Corpus offers for the very first time, in an innovative digital edition, Pierre Bayle’s complete works.

CONTENTS Pierre Bayle, Historical and Critical Dictionary (1740) In four years of tireless work (1693-1696), Pierre Bayle wrote and published his Dictionnaire historique et critique in eight folio volumes of 4000 pages. Composed of exceptionally small typography, the work totals approximately 45,000,000 characters. The Dictionnaire is composed of articles on catholic and reform theologians (Augustine, Jansen, Luther, Calvin, Beza…), heretodoxies (Anabaptists, Ochin, Socin, Alciato, Blandrata…), as well as on a variety of sects (Abelians, Adamites, Mamillaires, Picards, Turlupins…). Significant articles are dedicated to well-known Bible figures (Abraham, Eve, David…), and various mythological figures (Jupiter, Juno, Helen, Ajax, Hercules…); the articles dedicated to the ancient philosophers (Democritus, Epicurus, Chrysippus, Leucippus, Pyrrho, Zeno of Elea…) allow us to examine the coherence of their doctrines and to compare them to modern systems. Pierre Bayle established the Dictionnaire as a masterpiece symbolizing the “peaceful war” of intellectuals, or rather, the critical debate, permanent and pacifist, characterizing the Republic of Letters, in which the “empire of truth and reason” is recognized (art. “Catius”). The immense work immediately became the sine qua non reading of young philosophers and an inexhaustible source for the period’s clandestine manuscripts. It soon became one of the principal sources for Enlightenment philosophers and for Diderot and Alembert’s Encyclopédie ou dictionnaire raisonné des sciences, des arts et des métiers. Complete Literary and Philosophical Works Recent works reveal Pierre Bayle (1647-1706) to be not only a lucid and sardonic observer of trends in the ‘new philosophy’ in France but also an active player in the development of critical rationalism and the crisis of rationalistic theology at the turn of the seventeenth century. A specialist in the history of philosophy, Bayle created a space for dialogue between ancient and modern philosophers with energy and unparalleled learning. He strove to demonstrate that what he saw as the most consistent ‘Christian philosophy’ that of Malebranche faced irresolvable objections. Bayle was also a pioneering journalist, addressing the literary republic, the forerunner of today’s Europe. A theorist of a modern conception of tolerance, he developed the idea of civic tolerance (today we would call it ‘secularism’) throughout Europe. This set covers all Bayle’s literary and philosophical work: Nouvelles de la République des lettres, the Critique de Maimbourg, the Pensées diverses and their Continuation, the Commentaire philosophique and other controversial works, and the Réponse aux questions d’un provincial. Also incorporated are the polemical works from his great battle with Jurieu, as well as the minor works, including excerpts from Henri Basnage of Beauval’s periodical which can be confidently attributed to Bayle and the famous Avis aux réfugiés, attributed somewhat controversially to Bayle for the past three centuries (the editorial team shows that this attribution is strong and reliable).

Dictionaries, Grammars and Encyclopedias 47 FRENCH AND FRANCOPHONE LITERATURE Grand Corpus des littératures française et francophone du moyen âge au xxe siècle Great Corpus of French and Francophone Literature (Middle Ages to 20th Century)

The Grand Corpus brings together online the four corpora of literature published by Classiques Garnier: – The Corpus de la littérature médiévale, des origines à la fin duxv e siècle; – The Corpus de la littérature narrative du Moyen Âge à la fin duxx e siècle; – The Corpus de la première littérature francophone d’Afrique noire, des origines aux Indépendances (1960); – The Corpus de la première littérature francophone de l’Océan Indien, des origines aux Indépendances (1960). The complete Grand Corpus allows the user to search over 14,000 texts and the complete works of nearly 300 authors. As with other resources published by Classiques Garnier, all texts and bibliographic information are collected and verified, allowing for an optimal and faultless use of data. Among the fields of research available (depending on the collections) are: author, title of work, genre, date of composition, date of publication, place of publication, publisher, etc. The words of all the texts in the corpus are indexed and can be used as entries in searches. Twenty-four search operators allow a detailed full-text search. Among the functions offered by the Classiques Garnier Online database are: – Formation of corpora by the user, from which he/she can then advance all his/her research; – User identification for each session, saving of search history; – Emailing, printing, exporting of search results, tables of contents, document pages, etc. The basic text for the digital edition is the work’s original text in the latest edition produced in the author’s lifetime and approved by him/her. If this text does not exist, the text considered the most reliable by experts is retained (another edition in his/her lifetime, one of the posthumous editions, a manuscript, etc.). When a text exists in the original language (as with certain texts of the corpus of French-speaking literature of Sub-Saharan Africa and the Indian Ocean), it is offered in fac-simile together with its translation into French.

THE LEVELS OF TEXT PUBLICATION The diplomatic edition: the published edition is the exact copy of the printed original. The modern written form if necessary. The translated edition for the medieval period (accompanies the version in Old French).

French and Francophone Literature 51 Corpus de la première littérature francophone d’Afrique noire, des origines aux indépendances (1960) Corpus of Francophone Literature from Sub-Saharan Africa

Novels – Tales – Short stories – Drama – Poetry – Myths – Legends – Fables – Proverbs – Riddles – Songs

This large-scale scholarly enterprise compiles all the French-speaking literature from Sub-Saharan Africa possible to collect. It encompasses both oral and written literature, from its origins to African Independence. The written literature included comes either from widely circulated works or from publications with a local or temporary distribution. In the latter case, they were kept in short- lived media like periodicals, parish bulletins, school report books, etc.

The oral literature was recorded by monks, civil servants, soldiers, and French, foreign or local academics. It was preserved in various forms, in works as diverse as a report from a commanding office or an anthology assembled by a Parisian publisher. We also find this oral literature in dictionaries, grammars or in early nineteenth century manuals for teaching African languages. Educational works are wonderful stores for cultural heritage, both popular and scholarly. They also have the significant advantage of being bilingual. A bilingual version is provided for every French text that has a counterpart in an African language.

This Corpus, covering all of francophone Sub-Saharan Africa from Benin to Togo, and representing about twenty countries and more than a hundred ethnic groups, was built from a vast bibliographical search, followed by the collection and edition of the texts. It took Claude Blum twenty years to carry out this work. It is both a scholarly database and a precious collection of Africa’s cultural heritage. The critical apparatus of the original edition – notes and comments – has been maintained in its entirety. No library or specialized research centre possesses more than ten percent of this collection. Its huge scope does justice to the importance of early French-speaking African literature, and brings rare or unknown texts to light. The Corpus de la première littérature francophone d’Afrique noire is edited according to the rules of the electronic scholarly edition.

52 French and Francophone Literature Corpus de la première littérature francophone de l’Océan Indien, des origines aux indépendances (1960) Corpus of Francophone Literature from the Indian Ocean

A complete corpus of francophone literature from the Indian Ocean This Corpus gives access to all French-speaking literature, written and oral, from the Indian Ocean, from its origins in the eighteenth century to Independence. Réunion and Mauritius witnessed considerable literary production as early as the eighteenth century, while the twentieth century was particularly rich for Madagascan literature. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, works were published on local printing presses by local editors and their distribution was limited. Some of these editions are known only through rare copies in several libraries, private collections or family archives in each country. The oral literature of the Indian Ocean was recorded by intellectuals or religious communities. It is often recorded in specialised volumes or dispersed in didactic works (dictionaries, grammars, anthologies). We have used these sources to extract both the popular, scholarly, and often very ancient literary heritage of these countries. This Corpus is based on extensive bibliographical research and the collection and editing of the texts themselves over a twenty-year period. No library, public or private, or research centre enjoys a collection of this importance, which gives easy access to meticulous editions of a little-known but very rich literature.

THE TEXT The basic text chosen for the electronic edition corresponds to the original text as it came to us.

EDITING LEVELS The original text is edited in its identical original form. The French version of oral literary works is accompanied by a version in the original language, when that version exists.

French and Francophone Literature 53 La Bibliothèque des lettres The French Library (by Bibliopolis)

The French Library is a Bibliopolis publication available online from the Classiques Garnier online platform. It contains the following collections of texts: La Critique littéraire de Laharpe à Proust – Literary Criticism from Laharpe to Proust: Scholarly volumes, dialogues, prefaces, manifestos: the development of criticism is one of the great phenomena of nineteenth-century literature. Alongside experts, many famous writers experimented with this multiform genre; this corpus marks the rediscovery of this rich literary heritage which had lain forgotten in libraries until this day. Les Écrits sur l’art de Diderot à Proust – Writings on Art from Diderot to Proust: This is a unique database, dedicated solely to writing on art. It brings together 78,000 pages, eighty-seven authors, and 250 titles from 1741 to 1919. From aesthetics and philosophy to art history, and from texts and journals by painters to novels, the user of this database will be struck by the diversity of fields and writings gathered together here. Autour du romantisme, le roman – Considering Romanticism, the Novel: Considering Romanticism brings together the complete works of the most studied Romantic writers: Hugo, Chateaubriand, Mérimée, Musset, Madame de Staël, Barbey d’Aurevilly and Benjamin Constant, as well as the works of authors at present out of print – Frederic Soulié, Madame Cottin… – yet famous in their time.

54 French and Francophone Literature Corpus Montaigne – Œuvres complètes Montaigne Corpus

Montaigne’s complete works, from the sixteenth century to the present All the works published in Montaigne’s lifetime and after his death by his “daughter-in-law” Marie de Gournay, all the editions published from the 16th to the 20th century, their annotation and critical apparatus, and also the best editions of the complete works in Italian, English, German and Spanish go to make up the Montaigne Corpus and complete works. This Montaigne Corpus is the result of twenty years’ dedicated research: it contains all the different editions of the works of Montaigne in the 16th and 17th centuries, published from the manuscripts and the printed originals. These editions offer three different levels: – the diplomatic editions in text-mode, exact copy of the printed originals (several typographical fonts were created to this end). Diplomatic editions are the only way to ensure safeguard and exploitation of all the data contained in the original texts; – the critically established text, in text mode (correction of abbreviations and misprints, critical editing of the text). – modernised editions (modernised spelling). The corpus also contains some twenty great editions of the works of Montaigne edited in the 18th, 19 th and 20th centuries with their complete critical apparatus. This is the exceptional opportunity for scholars to have at hand the complete collection of Montaigne’s works in their different states and to study the greatest thinker, philosopher and writer of his period through new possibilities. The Montaigne Corpus is a scholarly reference work and a unsurpassable summa for the study of Montaigne and also for specialists of the 16th and 17th centuries and of classical philosophy.

French and Francophone Literature 55 PATROLOGIA Jean-Paul Migne Patrologia Græca Jean-Paul Migne, Patrologia Græca

No other collection of philosophical, theological or literary works can be compared to the Patrologia Græca, an impressive patristic library gathered together by Jacques-Paul Migne at the end of the nineteenth century. The Patrologia is divided into two series: the Patrologia Latina (series latina) and the Patrologia Græco-Latina (series graeco- latina). The Patrologia Græca gathers together the works of the Greek Fathers from the first century (Pseudo-Clement) to 1478 (Calliste). These works were published in 161 quarto volumes (plus three additional volumes for Theodore Hopfner’s Index Locupletissimus, Paris, 1928-1936, and Ferdinand Cavallera’s Indices, Paris, 1912). The Patrologia Græca publishes all major and minor Greek authors and gives access to the most important texts of Christian Antiquity and the Middle Ages. Readers will be able to find works by authors as different as Irenaeus of Lyons, Clement of Alexandria, Origen, Eusebius of Caesarea, Gregory of Nyssa, St. John Chrysostom, Cyril of Alexandria, Maximus Confessor, John Damascene, Georgius Pachymeres or Symeon Metaphrastes and hundreds more. The Patrologia Græca remains the reference work for most of these authors. The Patrologia Græca is an essential set of works for patristic and theological studies, medieval history and literature, the study of Greek and Latin works from late Antiquity, and the study of early Christianity and the Middle Ages. It is a valuable resource for many fields of the humanities, constituting an essential contribution to philosophy, art history and medical history. No other database covers so many subjects over such a long period. The digital version of the Patrologia Græca enables new methodological approaches, bearing with it a whole range of new possibilities for work and research on this encyclopaedic collection. Thanks to this electronic version of the works, the reader will be able to consult the text and launch sophisticated searches that were hitherto impossible; he or she can now compare a variety of texts, export and print them, alongside search results. The complete version in image mode can be consulted by means of tables and several detailed cues (more than 20,000,000 signs): – analytical table of contents (Latin), – analytical table of contents (Greek), – search for all authors, – search for all titles, – search for notions, – search for subjects.

The Bible for libraries, booksellers, and booklovers

The Manuel du Libraire is the most comprehensive and celebrated of the universal bibliographies published between the sixteenth and nineteenth century. The Manuel was published in five editions between 1810 and 1860. According to L.-N. Malclès, writing in his Sources du travail bibliographique, the Manual is a ‘selective universal’ bibliography: a list of all books, or carefully selected books, printed all over the world and on all subjects.

This Manual, which Brunet spent sixty years working on and perfecting, is a bibliography of the most outstanding works of his age, considering its content as well as its presentation, in all languages, on all subjects, and from all countries. Brunet, an erudite bookseller, selected works for their rarity, value, and perfection, considering the full range of texts published since the birth of the printing press.

CONTENTS The work includes: – A Dictionnaire bibliographique of 40 000 works, listed under author and anonymous titles – A Table méthodique which classifies all works described and cited in the dictionary – The Dictionnaire de géographie ancienne et moderne, an indispensable list of Latin town names with subsequent modifications and modern forms – The Supplément to the Dictionnaire bibliographique by P.
