Survey of Choices as Introduction to the Major Paper Assignment: A Material Text Biography<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For each text, consider, what theory of textuality, what idea of language, writing, and reading is implied? What kind of text technology did the writer use to create the text? How does it enlist materiality in the making of its meaning? What text technologies does it reference? How does it reflect on or otherwise signal its own materiality? How do words interact with matter to create meaning? What is the media ecology in which it first circulated? How can a media archaeology approach elucidate the biography of this text? How would the meaning change if it was remediated?
