These enterprises, in turn, are shaped by their social, economic, cultural, and technological environment. This course seeks to expand student understanding of texts by foregrounding the broader cultural context through and in which they take form. The course will cover the history of technologies of writing, paper, manuscript production, and printing, the history of literacy, education and reading, as well as the history of the book. It will be attentive to the impact of different kinds of books -- scripture, subversive writings, and consumables -- on societies and across cultures. It will considerthe ways in which institutions have sought to control books. While the course is centered on the western tradition, it will include sections on non-western traditions and on the post-modern era. Prerequisite: HTY 115, HTY 116, ENG 101 and a 100-level literature course, or permission of instructor. 3 Cr
