Abstract:

The analysis revolves around late twentieth-Century out-of-print books. While the expectation of availability that comes from digitized texts influences how we approach literature, these texts would be impossible to find without second-hand bookstores and flea markets. By focusing on underground queer New York works as a case study, we will see how a recovery of these texts and the dynamics that surrounds it provide an interesting perspective on the relationship between print and digital books, small and mainstream publishing, and the implications of this natural v. digital selection when it c

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to compare the prices of print and electronic versions of the same scholarly titles charged from a university library. This study also examines whether preferences for print or electronic formats differ with disciplines and whether high preferences for the electronic version in particular disciplines lead to tagging of high prices for e-books in those disciplines. This study evaluates association in prices of e-books and their print versions for scholarly books. It also explains trends in gaps of prices of electronic and their print versions over the time t

Abstract:

碩士<br>台南應用科技大學<br>美術系碩士班<br>102<br>Chinese woodcut is one of the oldest prints. It has taken place since the Tang Dynasty and the development of typography has made the woodcut prints become popular. Because of its convenience, woodcut has been greatly applied to not only the sutras but the folk woodcut prints. The firm scratches of woodcuts are able to make the stories more vivid, and thus the history of illustrations is highly related to the development of woodcut prints. As time goes by, the woodcut has become an alternative of mixed media. Artists use woodcut’s unique linear texture to mix

AbstractEven though the first press in Paris was set up in 1469, in rooms owned by the Collège de la Sorbonne, it took some time before the University's cursus ordinarius was regularly set in print. One of the first concerted efforts to reconfigure textbooks using print was carried out by Wolfgang Hopyland Johann Higman, beginning in the late 1480s. Their press—and their collaboration with the circle of Jacques Lefèvre d'Étaples—was taken up by the elder Henri Estienne and then Simon de Colines, who transformed the press into one of the most illustrious cases of the printing art in Europe, alo

Abstract This chapter draws on interviews of many poets, editors and other people associated with Carcanet and with the poetry scene in Britain. The overall objective was to understand how poetry has survived in a very tough marketplace in the past fifty years. Data extracted from these transcripts show three different groups connected with Carcanet Press (1) the Old Guard—those who belong to Michael Schmidt’s generation and were associated with the early Carcanet/PN; (2) the New Guard whose association with Carcanet/PN started after 1980; and (3) marginals who gravitate away from Schmidt eith

Abstract:

Abstract This chapter shows that Carcanet Press constructed an image of H. D. (Hilda Doolittle) not as a feminist trailblazer, but as a rigorous writer dedicated to poetic form and tradition. With the Arts-Council-funded publication of H. D.’s work, Carcanet Press opened the door to the publication of other neglected modernist texts by Wyndham Lewis and Ford Madox Ford. Rather than being presented as a female writer neglected by a patriarchal literary establishment, H. D. was tied to a more conservative reading of modernism—a movement intertwined with controversial figures (from Ezra Pound to

Abstract:

The printer and bookseller John Evans was, in the last decade of the eighteenth century, seemingly prolonging the lifespan of the type of publication that had hitherto typified the Aldermary Churchyard press and which it was abandoning in search of ‘respectability’. The place of business Evans established for his work, and which was retained by his family for a further forty-five years, was originally John Marshall’s, and what seems to have been his ‘big break’ came courtesy of Marshall when he fell out of favour with the patrons of the Cheap Repository Tracts. Nevertheless, Evans had a distin

Abstract:

AbstractCriticism frequently questions the aesthetic or narrative qualities of lists and assigns them a primarily pragmatic function. The list (or table) of contents is typically identified as a reference tool and of little literary value in itself, merely pointing forward to what is to come in the book it is attached to. This chapter will argue in favor of the narrative, even literary, potential of the lists of contents for British poetry anthologies that goes beyond a straightforward reinforcement of the canon.

Abstract This chapter is concerned with the long transition from page to screen (and then back again, from screen to page) and its impact on the notion of the book and expressions of bookishness in twentieth- and twenty-first-century culture. It argues that the dream of bridging the gap between print artefacts and electronic books is not a creation of the television or the Internet eras. Rather, its lineage extends back to the aspirationally electrified avant-garde experimental books of the 1920s, forward through the electric information age paperbacks of the 1960s, as well as experiments with

The British National Antarctic Expedition left England in 1901 to spend the following three years in Antarctica. Under the leadership of Robert Falcon Scott the officers and crew on board Discovery were provided with an extensive library for research and recreation during their long sojourn in the south. From the men’s diaries, official reports, and correspondence, it has been possible to account for the diversity and intensity of reading experiences throughout this period. Contrary to the confident official reports that came out about the expedition, the men’s relationships with print suggest

Library collections since the 1960s have generally focused on a strategy of “give them what they want,” but in the case of ebooks, there seems to be a t

Abstract:

Storybook reading to children is considered an efficient way to provide a meaningful context for exposure to unfamiliar words and grammar (Weizman & Snow, 2001). Nonetheless, children with limited language knowledge (e.g., child MTL learners in Singapore) may benefit less from the reading activities, due to the gap between their skills and those required for processing the narration. They often fail to derive the meaning of unknown words/grammar from the verbal context and consequently have trouble figuring out the story plots (Verhallen & Bus, 2010).
