Synopsis

Reimagining 'the text' in the electronic age; What happens when, in the wake of postmodernism, the old enterprises of bibliography, textual criticism, and scholarly editing cross paths and processes with visual and cultural studies? In Reimagining Textuality, major scholars map out a new discipline, drawing on and redirecting a host of subfields concerned with the production, distribution, reproduction, consumption, reception, archiving, editing, and sociology of texts.

About this title

Review:

"A terrific collection. By asking the contributors to 'reimagine textuality,' the editors set out to reimagine the methods, objects, and goals of textual scholarship." - Michael Groden, co-editor of The Johns Hopkins Guide to Literary Theory and Criticism
