About This Item
Oak Knoll Press, 2005. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. This book is clean and bright, with no creases, no tears, and no markings. Dustjacket also in excellent condition; clean & bright, with no bumps or creases or tears. From the front flap: "Reading, and the manifold signs of reading, have become one of the most dynamic areas of research in book history. The reader as consumer and owner, as well as participant in the construction of new meanings, is the subject of these original essays. Specialists in literature, art history and book history investigate the annotations, marginal marks, extra-illustration and other forms of evidence left by readers. Through an examination of the book as a physical object, the contributors provide a range of intriguing insights into the ways in which this internalized and ephemeral activity can be understood in the context of book-trade history. Includes 40 black and white illustrations." In stock, ready to ship now from Evanston, IL!
