Over the past twenty years the study of print culture has become prominent in the disciplines of history, literary studies and languages. The study of print culture has many advantages, but there is a growing sense among advanced practitioners that scholars need to fine-tune or calibrate their understanding of this burgeoning field of enquiry.
This international conference will encourage scholars to think more systematically about the conceptual, methodological and technological problems associated with the study of print culture. They will encompass a wide range of chronological periods, geographical locations and genres of print.
Confirmed speakers include: Professor Michael Suarez, Professor William St Clair, Professor James Raven, Dr Cristina Neagu, Professor Leslie Howsam, Professor David Finkelstein, Dr Toby Barnard and Professor Nicholas Allen.
