  • Description: If Grosman refers to individual reading as an intimate act of temporary cohabitation with fictional characters, Norbert Bachleitner, Associate Professor of Comparative Literature at the University of Vienna, addresses in his contribution, 'From the Reading Public and Individual Readers towards a Sociology of Reading Milieus', the importance of sociological approaches to the history of reading, which enable us to grasp the reading habits of different classes and audiences, rather than individual readers. [...]Tone Smolej, Associate Professor at the Department of Comparative Literature and Literary Theory at the University of Ljubljana, presents a study on 'La bibliothèque et le lecteur en Carniole (1670-1870) et l'histoire littéraire slovène' (The Library and the Reader in Carniola [1670-1870] and Slovene Literary Studies), which focuses on the well-documented libraries, i.e., those established and run by Slovene aristocracy from the seventeenth to the nineteenth centuries. What seems more problematic is the question whether this information can be taken as representative at all. Since the vast majority of readers, as we all know from our personal experience, leave no traces, those who do are necessarily atypical, which means that any writing about reading is automatically unusual. [...]the papers offer insights into various spatio-temporal contexts - sixteenth-century France, seventeenth- to nineteenth-century Carniola, eighteenth-century England and socialist Hungary - and discuss different reader types, such as the young (Santini), the censored (Schandl), the professional (Hab jan), or the female reader (Littau).
