摘要

本文考察了贝鲁特早期出版的商业和经济状况Nahḍa。首先，赞助原创作品印刷的做法表明，在19世纪50年代，金钱是如何促进文化生产的。接下来，以khalurl al-Khūrī(1836-1907)的报纸和出版社Ḥadīqat al-Akhbār(“新闻花园”，成立于1858年)和al-Maṭba - a al-Sūriyya(“叙利亚出版社”，成立于1857年)为例，揭示了作为文化企业家和印刷先驱的经营挑战和财务困难。最后，对al- tah Umda al- adabiyya li-Ishhār al- kutub al- tah Arabiyya(“阿拉伯图书出版文学委员会”，1860-67年)的全面研究表明，众筹的作用和贝鲁特中产阶级之间合作的重要性，al-Khūrī是该伙伴关系的项目负责人和印刷商。这篇文章提出了在阿拉伯文学复兴中出版的“业务”的一个现实的帐户。

The Business of Publishing in the Early Beirut Nahḍa: Khalīl al-Khūrī, Partnerships, and the Literary Committee

This article examines the business and economics of publishing in the early Beirut Nahḍa. First, the practice of patronage to bring original works to print shows how money facilitated cultural production in the 1850s. Next, a case study of Khalīl al-Khūrī’s (1836–1907) newspaper and press, Ḥadīqat al-Akhbār (“News Garden”, established 1858) and al-Maṭbaʿa al-Sūriyya (“the Syrian Press”, established 1857), reveals the operational challenges and financial difficulties of being a cultural entrepreneur and printing pioneer. Lastly, a comprehensive study of al-ʿUmda al-Adabiyya li-Ishhār al-Kutub al-ʿArabiyya (“the Literary Committee for Publishing Arabic Books”, 1860–67), a partnership for which al-Khūrī was the project runner and printer, illustrates the role of crowdfunding and the importance of cooperation among the Beirut middle class. This article presents a realistic account of being “in the business” of publishing in the Arabic literary revival.
