  • Abstract: The word dédicace, which refers to the homage an author makes of his or her work to someone whose name is inscribed on the first page, comes from the Latin dedicatio, meaning a ceremony in which an object is consecrated to a divinity. This volume investigates the practical and aesthetic implications of this etymology.
