Language Machines: Technologies of Literary and Cultural Production (Essays from the English Institute) - Softcover
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.

From the Back Cover:
Language is now and always has been produced by a variety of machines. But within this proposition lie the histories not only of language but of the idea of machinery, and of the body as a machine.These provocative and rich essays argue persuasively that language is no disembodied essence but instead deeply, resolutely material.
