What happens when, in the wake of postmodernism, the old enterprise of bibliography, textual criticism, or scholarly editing crosses paths and processes with visual and cultural studies?  In Reimagining Textuality, major scholars map out in this volume a new discipline, drawing on and redirecting a host of subfields concerned with the production, distribution, reproduction, consumption, reception, archiving, editing, and sociology of texts. 

From the Back Cover:

"A terrific collection. By asking the contributors to 'reimagine textuality,' the editors set out to reimagine the methods, objects, and goals of textual scholarship."-Michael Groden, co-editor of The Johns Hopkins Guide to Literary Theory and Criticism
