- Abstract
Cultural intermediaries are cultural workers mediating cultural production and consuming public. This article explores the multiplicity of practices of the cultural intermediaries in publishing industry in Taiwan. As gatekeepers in the publishing field, publishers and editors have antagonistic cooperation with authors; as mediators between creativity production and bookmarket, they have to make trade-off between cultural value and market profit. Based on field work and interviews, the paper investigated the roles of cultural intermediaries in creation and reproduction stages of book production, and constructed a typology of editors in Taiwan. I found that the role model of the editors has been transforming from"gatekeeper model" selecting and filtering creative works to the "producer model" involving and intervening in the creative stage. There contains a contradiction in the latter model as the intermediaries substituted authors and became creative subjects.
