Description
Book SynopsisThe contributors to this volume re-assess literary practice at the edges of paper, electronic media, and film. They show how the emergence of a new medium reinvigorates the book and the page as literary media, rather than announcing their impending death.
Trade Review"A strong collection that is carefully organized around a clearly defined set of themes and interests. The volume poses questions of the always dynamic, transitional and 'feedback-looped' relationship between, on the one hand, paper and print-based forms, histories and archives; and, on the other, electronic media and textualities." -- -Simon Morgan Wortham University of Portsmouth "A state of the art book. Understanding the effects of the rapid changes from a print culture to a digital culture is of major importance these days." -- -J. Hillis Miller University of California, Irvine
