  2. E-Literacies: Politexts, Hypertexts, and Other Cultural Formations in the Late Age of Print

    In this early example of a non-fiction, hypertext essay published on the web, Kaplan coins the term “e-literacies”, in which she combines the concepts of electronic literacy and of a literary elite. Using this term, Kaplan discusses various interpretations of electronic media as promising or threatening, and argues that these interpretations are in fact not directly derived from the technology at all. The essay consists of 35 nodes, each ranging in length from a paragraph to a number of lines corresponding to two or three printed pages.

  4. Understanding Knowledge Work

    Alan Liu responds to reviews of The Laws of Cool: Knowledge Work and the Culture of Information by N. Katherine Hayles and Johanna Drucker, both of whom admire Liu's book but believe that it exaggerates the influence of corporate knowledge work while providing an inadequate response to its destructive ahistoricism. Liu proposes that the digital age needs "new-media platforms of humanistic instruction" to supplement critical and theoretical humanistic approaches to help students understand how the human concerns and impulses that give rise to new media productions relate to knoweldge work.

  7. Friending the Past: The Sense of History and Social Computing

    Reflecting on the relation between the media ages of orality, writing, and digital networking, Liu asks the question: what happens today to the “sense of history” that was the glory of the high age of print? In particular, what does the age of social computing—social networking, blogs, Twitter, etc.—have in common with prior ages in which the experience of sociality was deeply vested in a shared sense of history? Liu focuses on a comparison of nineteenth-century historicism and contemporary Web 2.0, and concludes by touching on the RoSE Research-oriented Social Environment that the Transliteracies Project he directs has been building to model past bibliographical resources as a social network.
