FIRST INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE: LA LONGUE VIE DES IMPRIMÉS ÉPHÉMÈRES / THE LONG LIFE OF EPHEMERAL LITERATURE
Entre el 5 y el 7 de mayo de 2022, tendrá lugar el Congreso Internacional The long life of ephemeral literature, en Ginebra.
«The production of ephemeral literature in previous centuries deserves special attention, not only because of the sheer amount of these prints, but also because of the diversity of their contents, and the valuable contributions they make to various fields, particularly popular culture, the circulation of ideas, and the history of books. Frequently referred to as cheap prints, this type of publications appeared hand-in-hand with the invention of the printing press and existed until very recently. Though texts and accounts published in the form of ephemera survive to this day in only a few places around the world, they constitute an important part of Europe’s bygone past. The disappearance of such a traditional editorial activity, along with the loss of the printed objects themselves, compels us to study these publications and preserve what is becoming a fading memory».

Making a narrative out of an event: inform, entertain, lecture
The printed sheet and its boundaries: international circulation and cultural particularities
