Abstract

Incorporating techniques from book history into traditional intellectual history, this article traces the effective origin of indexing to the early printed editions of two lexicographical works, Lorenzo Valla's Elegantie and Niccolò Perotti's Cornu copiae, and then follows its development through the editions of the Roman poet Virgil published between 1500 and 1800. Indexing practices turn out to be tied to how books were read, with a new way of consuming books, which is labeled "transverse reading," emerging during this period.

论索引：一种观念的产生与早期发展

摘要：本文将书籍史的技术融入传统的知识史，追溯了索引的有效起源，追溯到洛伦佐·瓦拉的《Elegantie》和尼科洛·佩罗蒂的《Cornu copiae》这两部词典编纂作品的早期印刷版，并通过罗马诗人维吉尔在1500年至1800年间出版的版本来跟踪其发展。事实证明，索引实践与书籍的阅读方式有关，在这一时期出现了一种被称为“横向阅读”的新的书籍消费方式。

期刊介绍： Since its inception in 1940, the Journal of the History of Ideas has served as a medium for the publication of research in intellectual history that is of common interest to scholars and students in a wide range of fields. It is committed to encouraging diversity in regional coverage, chronological range, and methodological approaches. JHI defines intellectual history expansively and ecumenically, including the histories of philosophy, of literature and the arts, of the natural and social sciences, of religion, and of political thought. It also encourages scholarship at the intersections of cultural and intellectual history — for example, the history of the book and of visual culture.
