Contents
Idea A: Vic Book History post-2012
Notes
- Approaches to print culture post-Leah Price
- book history
- media theory/studies
- periodicals studies
- eco-book history (Gidal)
- information/library history
- history of reading
- Liz Miller, Leah Price — maybe not so narrow time-wise
- Priya Joshi, In Another Country
- How those fields meet and how a book history approach intersects with and is different from reception history
- Joshi and Gidal are reception history
- James Seacord Victorian Sensation
- Price 2012 as "anti-reception history"?
- Distinct from binding and wood pulp —> literal material history is not so much done (ecological/industrial underpinnings)
- Wooden Os
- acid, hazardousness in print industry
- Use this to build an exam list
- Reception history is important but I (am/am not) doing that —> where you want to go and what you want to find
Knowledge Gaps
- Labor
- Straight up material history
- Reprint culture (Shakespeare, other "classics")
- More granular periodization (cf. Miller 2013 and Leckie 2015)

Idea B: Victorian Thing Culture
Notes
- Work responding to or in the orbit of Freedgood 2006
- constellation of articles around a major text (per JOT)
- or read intros of books and say "these are the claims they're making" - taking them at their word
- "this person says x about her argument and that says y about the state of the field"
Knowledge Gaps
- how to connect the narrative unconscious and the textual unconscious? A McLeodian and Freedgoodian reading?
- it's striking that both use the metaphor of the subconscious and of memory
- what about anachronistic things like old books?
