This course explores a wide range of issues in the history and practice of publishing, editing, and the production and distribution of texts. Such issues may include the book as object, the ethics of publishing, the history of reading and censorship, and/or the rise of print culture. These concepts will help students explore how various texts in literature, history, media, and culture construct the meaning of place, and how meanings of place reshape their understanding of home, nation, and belonging.
