Tapa blanda. Condition: New. Nunca en la historia ha existido un momento más importante para la creación y la transmisión de conocimiento. Por un lado, las tecnologías de la comunicación posibilitan transformaciones antes inimaginables, que el mundo del libro y la edición aprovechan para hacer lo que mejor saben: situarse a la cabeza de las innovaciones. Por otro lado, jamás ha habido una proliferación equiparable de estudios y análisis sobre la edición y el libro en todas sus formas, lo que nos permite reflexionar sobre el modo en que se produce esta revolución para la que no existen precedentes.Esta obra es el mejor ejemplo de dicha reflexión. Desde distintos puntos de vista, desde diversas disciplinas y con la mayor riqueza y capacidad de disección se explica qué hacen los hoy editores, qué valor supone su actividad, y cuál es la dimensión cultural y social que hace que el mundo del libro y la edición tenga un perfil propio y una capacidad real de esclarecer y transformar la realidad en que vivimos.Los fundamentos del libro y la edición es una obra colaborativa de académicos y representantes de la industria editorial y librera, que aborda cuestiones urgentes como las complejidades de la industria, los desafíos de la lectura y la educación, los mercados globales y las grandes diferencias regionales, la propiedad intelectual y los derechos de autor, la responsabilidad social de las editoriales o las relaciones de la industria de la edición con otros medios de comunicación y entretenimiento, y las siempre cambiantes tecnologías.Los libros nunca están solos. Forman parte de colecciones, conviven en los estantes de las librerías y bibliotecas, y conversan con otras obras a través de sus lectores y lectoras. En este caso, Los fundamentos del libro y la edición está en buena compañía: la colección Tipos Móviles es el entorno natural para que este volumen dialogue con otros textos que también hablan de libros, editores y librerías.…

Embossed decorative motif on front and back boards. Pages clean except for slight foxing on the preliminary and trailing pages. This is the first edition of Crowther's vocabulary to include the 38 pages of 'introductory remarks' by Owen E. Vidal. A previous edition of the vocabulary, including an explanation of Yoruba grammar, appeared in London in 1843. Samuel Crowther was a Yoruba clergyman of the Church of England who, as it is written in the prefatory 'Advertisement' included in this volume, was 're-captured from Brazilian slavers by the cruisers of the British squadron, and landed at Sierra Leone, where [he] received a Christian education in the schools of the Church Missionary Society.' A very rare and interesting book. …

at his primary visitation, October 6, 1853. [3]-23 p.; 20.5 cm. Lacks half-title (or initial blank leaf) `My brethren, the great enemy of souls has extended his sway over the greater portion of the world in which we live; but if we would point out the real seat of his dominion--the home government of his vast empire, the most crushed and abject and degraded portion of his world-wide inheritance --we must skirt the dreary shores of this inhospitable continent; we must note the varied customs of these savage tribes; we must penetrate the dark unknown, the mysterious problem of unnumbered ages, the long-sought, but never-found, interior of poor ill-fated Africa. Here we may discover the truest anbd fullest meaning of the scriptural descriptions of that kingdom of darkness against which we are arrayed, but whose overthrow, blessed be God, is no matter of doubt or uncertainty. From us, my brethren,in this our outpost, the saving Gospel of the grace of God must go forth to combat and to conquer alike the Fetichism of Guinea and the Islamism of Soudan. Before the cross of Christ,must fall the Ifa and Oro of Yoruba, the Serpent of Dahomey, and the Tsuku of Aboh. And far and wide as Felatah depredation has spread the Bism' illahi 'rahman of the prophet, so far, so wide, must the initiatory formula of a better and a more enduring creed prevail, "In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost." .the pale light of the Crescent must wane, and the utter darkness of Hamitic paganism must give way before the advancing light of the rising Sun of Righteousness:yes, fromthe northern Syrtes of Algiers and Tripoli tothe far Southern Cape, and from these western mountains to the wild Wanika heights of Rabbai 'mpia.' Good, removed. Chip from upper corner of title-page.…
