Description

This is a study of the forms and institutions of print - newspapers, books, scholarly editions, publishing, libraries - as they relate to and are changed by emergent digital forms and institutions. In the early 1990s hypertext was briefly hailed as a liberating writing tool for non-linear creation. Fast forward no more than a decade, and we are reading old books from screens. It is, however, the newspaper, for around two hundred years print's most powerful mass vehicle, whose economy persuasively shapes its electronic remediation through huge digitization initiatives, dominated by a handful of centralizing service providers, funded and wrapped round by online advertising. The error is to assume a culture of total replacement. The Internet is just another information space, sharing characteristics that have always defined such spaces - wonderfully effective and unstable, loaded with valuable resources and misinformation; that is, both good and bad. This is why it is important that writers, critics, publishers and librarians - in modern parlance, the knowledge providers - be critically engaged in shaping and regulating cyberspace, and not merely the passive instruments or unreflecting users of the digital tools in our hands. Review 'This important book takes critical stock of textual transmissions from print to digital and back. Using case studies such as hypertexts, newspapers, critical editions and libraries, Deegan & Sutherland elegantly and pedagogically make us aware of recurrent patterns between historical media as well as between theories about those media. Filled with reason, intelligent argumentation and sharp, even aphoristic comments, while also being clearly and accessibly formulated, this book is no less than an academic pageturner.' Mats DahlstrÃ¶m, University of Gothenburg, Sweden 'This elegant and readable book by two British arts academics draws both on the humanistic tradition and on the most recent Internet research to begin a systematic evaluation of the new media from the view point of intellectual history...much food for thought for anyone interested in the information universe.' Australian Academic & Research Libraries 'This is essential reading for anyone with an interest in print, its history, the current state of the art and its future in the age of the internet. This is a very valuable resource and is highly recommended.'
