  • Why Modern Manuscripts Matter

    by Kathryn Sutherland ...
    This is a study of the politics, the commerce, and the aesthetics of heritage culture in the shape of authors' manuscripts.

Since then, collectors ... Read more

    Digital Technology and the Forms of Print

    by Marilyn Deegan, Kathryn Sutherland ...
    Series series Digital Research in the Arts and Humanities
    This is a study of the forms and institutions of print - newspapers, books, scholarly editions, publishing, libraries - as they relate to and are changed by emergent digital forms and institutions.
