Abstract:This article uses Dutch auction catalogues to trace the eighteenth-century reception and circulation of the works of the prominent natural scientist Maria Sibylla Merian. It opens up discussion of book history methodologies by demonstrating how auction catalogues can be used to study the public personas of collectors, book ownership, authorial reputation, the literary market, and reading practices. Addressing issues more specifically of gender and reading culture, it nuances the inherited assumption that women collectors showed a clear preference for works by other women, and draws attention to the collective nature of book collecting practices and literary reputations.

营销 Maria Sibylla Merian,1720-1800 年:荷兰共和国的图书拍卖、性别和阅读文化

摘要:本文使用荷兰拍卖目录追溯了 18 世纪著名自然科学家玛丽亚·西比拉·梅里安 (Maria Sibylla Merian) 作品的接受和流通情况。它通过展示如何使用拍卖目录来研究收藏家的公众形象、书籍所有权、作者声誉、文学市场和阅读实践,开启了对书籍历史方法的讨论。更具体地解决性别和阅读文化的问题,它微妙地改变了女性收藏家对其他女性的作品表现出明显偏好的继承假设,并提请注意图书收藏实践和文学声誉的集体性质。
