From a theoretical and comparative perspective, we present some notes on the notions of œuvre (in a broad sense and in the strict sense of literary and artistic work) and book (in the strict sense of material object and in translational senses), treated as problem notions and in some of their variations both historical and related to the fields in which they are used, especially in literary studies, art theory and editorial studies, with emphasis on issues of spatial nature. The lines of development include: the sign systems constituting the work (especially writing and its codes, such as alphabetical); the technical systems of production and reception of the work; the book’s relations with the forms that try to expand it (such as artist books and bookworks); the discussion of other concepts related to materiality, such as the concepts of body and substance.
