URL to paper listed on journal page Des définitions aux usages : une historiographie du théâtre français au XVIIIe siècle Restreinte, à ses débuts, à l’analyse littéraire des textes et aux biographies de grands dramaturges, l’historiographie du théâtre au XVIIIème siècle s’est élargie à partir des années 1930. Après avoir résumé les deux traditions historiographiques qui ont le plus marqué cette réflexion, à savoir les approches en terme de « Vie théâtrale » et la « New Cultural History », je m’attacherai plus précisément à deux approches actuelles qui explorent la question des usages : les travaux au croisement de l’histoire du théâtre et de l’histoire du livre, d’une part ; l’histoire des théâtres de société, de l’autre. From Definition to Usage: A Historiography of the French Stage in the Eighteenth Century Initially limited to literary analysis and the biographies of great writers, the historiography of the eighteenth-century French theater has expanded in scope since the 1930s. After reviewing the two most notable scholarly traditions, those of « La Vie théâtrale » and « The New Cultural History », this article considers two recent, promising approaches : the interplay of book history and theater history, and the study of private theatricals. 2012-08-16T18:02:30Z 2012-08-16T18:02:30Z 2012-09 Article http://purl.org/eprint/type/JournalArticle 1768-6520 1760-6233 http://hdl.handle.net/1721.1/72172 Ravel, Jeffrey S.
