After you’re done, please write a short blog responding to the following:
- Based on what you watched, how would you define “digital book history”? Please use quotes from the video where appropriate.
- What kinds of digital approaches to the study of the book are you most drawn to, and why?
- What did you make of Trettien’s terminology for explaining the studies in digital book history?
- Finally, reflect on your own early plans for your final project. By now, you should have at least a couple of choices for what primary source(s) you’re working with. List what text/materials you’re considering for the project, and why
