Description
The overlaps between the digital humanities and textual studies—two major scholarly fields which share common interests and methods—still demand further theoretical reflections. This volume brings together an exciting collection of book historians, textual editors, curators, and new media theorists to provide templates and methodological reflections on how digital textual studies research can be done.
Featuring contributions from a variety of early career and experienced scholars and practitioners, this volume uses case studies and methodological provocations to open up digital textual studies, as well as taking a step back to consider the broader theoretical and pedagogical implications they raise. In doing so, it sets the agenda for pragmatic, digital text-based scholarship and methods, providing useful tools and frameworks for anyone in need of an introduction to textual studies that is grounded in digital research and new media.

The Language of Cyber Attacks is a...Paperback$4500Unit price /UnavailableAvailableShips in 4-6 weeks -
