Doublures are ornamental linings on the inside of a book. Doublures are protected from wear, compared to the outside of a book, and thus offer bookbinders scope for elaborate decoration. The 15th century Islamic doublures strongly influenced the doublures in Western Europe. The term ''doublure'' is of French origin. Tooled doublures are to be found in French bookbinding of the seventeenth: in particular, they are associated with the books of the Jansenist sect, which were extremely simple on the outside, while they had gilding on the doublure.〔(French Decorative Bookbinding - Seventeenth Century )〕 One of the bookbinders known for his Jansenist-style bindings was Luc-Antoine Boyet, binder to Louis XIV. The term Jansenist is also applied to bindings in this style of a much later date.〔(Lorenzaccio ). "Reading Europe: European culture through the book". The European Library.〕 The British bookbinder G.T. Bagguley patented a process for tooling in colours called the "Sutherland binding" which was principally employed on doublures.〔The British Library has, for example, a copy of ''The Glittering Plain'' from Bagguley's bindery with vellum doublures. ((C.69.h.9: BL Catalogue ), British Library).〕 Bagguley, who was librarian to the Duke and Duchess of Sutherland, named the process after the duchess. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Doublure (bookbinding)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
