ENGL 90117 - Print, Manuscript, and Performance in the Atlantic World, 1550-1800

Institution:

University of Notre Dame

Subject:

English

Description:

The history of books has recently emerged as a vibrant field of study in which cultural theorists, literary critics, textual scholars, bibliographers and historians are all engaged in lively and productive conversation about texts, documents, technology, orality, literacy, and performance. However despite this intellectual ferment, studies of the book remain deeply bound by national bibliographies; in an effort to avoid such rigidities, this course, team taught by professors of American and English literature, will examine the book in the early modern Atlantic world, which recently has itself become an object of scholarly attention.
