Other areas he encourages us to pursue, based on today’s papers: censorship, books that cross borders, books that transcend history, untranslatable books, books we haven’t/can’t read... #HYBook18

After our panel on “Ephemeral Dickens,” some closing remarks from Peter Stallybrass #HYBook18

[Bailey Sincox @BaileySincox]

Stallybrass touches on the afterlives and spin-offs of canonical works like Great Expectations, saying “we don’t need a platonic idea of the text, but we do need a highly plural idea of the text.” #HYBook18

[Bailey Sincox @BaileySincox]

What is “Beyond the Book”? Stallybrass reminds us only 13-14% of printed sheets historically went into books. One place to start is “everything else”! #HYBook18

[Bailey Sincox @BaileySincox]

Fascinating, wide-ranging third panel with Liam Ahern on Ancient Greek in postwar Europe, Caitlin Woolsey on the 1960s avant garde art journal OU, and Tiraana Bains on Persianate literary culture in colonial India. #HYBook18

[Bailey Sincox @BaileySincox]

Strong conclusion to the second panel with Rebecca Hill on Islamic “word-books” (not thesauri!) and Matthew Keaney on a successful South African township library. #HYBook18

[Bailey Sincox @BaileySincox]

Now Christopher Platts on Bessarion, humanist learning, and one collection's illuminated manuscripts now dispersed across the world's libraries #HYBook18

[Bailey Sincox @BaileySincox]

Our next panel, "Media and the Archive," kicks off with Russ Gasdia on a satirical library catalogue that prompted misguided censorship during the 30 Years' War. #HYBook18

[Bailey Sincox @BaileySincox]

Acorns, beechnuts, shepherds, and Greek script: great first panel on "Pastoral and Print" with papers by Clio Doyle and Jakub Koguciuk #HYBook18

[Bailey Sincox @BaileySincox]

Lively opening remarks from John Durham Peters, who asks why we don't read books like people (instead of the other way around). #HYBook18
