Abstract

The project "The transatlantic circulation of printed matter - the globalization of culture in the 19th Century" intends to learn more about the printed matter and the ideas in circulation between England, France, Portugal and Brazil, in "the long 19th Century" (1789-1914). Its main objectives are to identify to and analyze the cultural practices involved in the processes of circulation of printed matter and ideas on a transnational scale, studying the appropriations of these ideas in those four countries by means of the investigation of the writings and actions of the men of letters, as well as of the activities of censors, editors, publishers and booksellers.
