Language Machines: Technologies of Literary and Cultural ProductionJeffrey Masten, Peter Stallybrass, Nancy J. Vickers Routledge, 2016 M03 23 - 288 pages Language Machines questions any easily progressive model of technological change, demonstrating the persistence rather than the obsolescence of language technologies over time, the continuous and complicated overlap of pens, presses, screens and voice. In these essays new technologies do not simply replace, but rather draw upon, absorb, displace and resituate earlier technologies. |
