Future of the Book

Posted in January 21st, 2010
Published in AfterPrint, Assignments

For Tuesday’s class, start by reading these two essays by Derrida. Next, read the introduction to The Future of the Book (Nunberg). Finally, select two essays from the book which you think will relate to your group’s project and read those. (If the above link for the Derrida essays does not work try this one.)

After you are done with the reading, post to your group’s site reflecting on the reading and connecting it to your developing thinking about the project. (Roughly 300 words should suffice, but feel free to use more.) Everyone should post individually to the group websites (i.e. 5 per site, not one post for the whole group).

I can’t access the Derrida essays. Is there another place/way to get hold of them?
