An ongoing online project of Casey Smith's MA seminar, "The History of the Western Book," at the Corcoran College of Art + Design in Washington DC, focusing on information, discussion, and debate about the history (and future) of scripted forms, especially the printed forms of the past five hundred years commonly referred to as books.

Last Minute Reading Assignment
I just learned (thanks Alex) that I failed to provide you with the links to this week's reading. If you have the chance before class to quickly read the short essay on the English Private Press Movement in the OCB: click here, please do so. It's short, so I'll bring some handouts to class. The other reading is a longish essay about the collaborative work of Leonard Baskin and Ted Hughes. We'll take a look at it during class. Half of the class today will focus on late 19th c. biblioculture, the other half will be an informal workshop about crafting your seminar papers and working on a research/writing plan.
