Comparative Textual Media: Transforming the Humanities in the Postprint Era

Proposes a new paradigm for the humanities by recognizing print as a medium within a comparative context

Primarily arguing for seeing print as a medium along with the scroll, electronic literature, and computer games, this volume examines the potential transformations if academic departments embraced a media framework. The editors bring together an impressive range of leading scholars to offer new insights for better understanding the implications of the choices we, and our institutions, are making.
