Editor's Notes
- Good afternoon. I was thinking of just giving handouts, but when I realized the nature of the source material, I thought it might be better to show documents on a screen. After setting up all the arrangements and finalizing my outline, I realized that it would, in fact, be appropriate to use--in McKenzie’s words--newer technology to heighten appreciation of the printed book, and maybe even orality and literacy. Let me start by quoting from the Adams and Barker article last week. This quote, in my opinion, highlights the differences between Darnton and McKenzie’s thoughts, on one hand, and Adams and Barker.
