Harmonizing Difference in the Digital Archive

Whitney Trettien’s digital monograph, Cut/Copy/Paste: Echoes of Little Gidding explores perhaps the largest early modern archive of English women’s bookwork, known as the Little Gidding Harmonies. In this talk, Professor Trettien connects this project’s design to broader methodological interventions in the fields of book history, media archaeology, and digital humanities.

All are welcome regardless of digital humanities experience!
Lunch is provided; please RSVP to NUDHL co-convener Michael Kramer at mjk@northwestern.edu

She is co-editor of Provoke! Digital Sound Studies, a digital collection of sonic scholarship, and co-editor of thresholds, a new digital journal and platform for creative/critical scholarship.
