Description
Book SynopsisExamines Faulkner’s characters, events, locations, and visualizations, as well as offering more theoretical reflections on digitally mapping specific texts and stories, including the pedagogical implications of this digital approach.
Trade ReviewThis book offers new ways of thinking about the demographics of Faulkner’s fictional Yoknapatawpha, fresh insights into Faulkner’s adaptation of modernist narrative techniques, and a substantial modification of our understanding of the various themes and events in Faulkner’s work—not only in the major novels but throughout his larger oeuvre. The collection’s most unique contribution, however, is in demonstrating how digital humanities projects can both enable and meaningfully inform carefully researched scholarship in traditional formats.
Digitizing Faulkner makes and signals significant headway in fulfilling the promise of digital humanities."- Wes Hamrick, Digital Humanities Fellow, Greenhouse Studio, University of Connecticut
