This book traces affinities between digital and medieval media,
exploring how reading functioned as a nexus for concerns about
increasing literacy, audiences' agency, literary culture and media
formats from the late fourteenth to the early sixteenth centuries.
Drawing on a wide range of texts, from well-known poems of Chaucer
and Lydgate to wall texts, banqueting poems and devotional works
written by and for women, Participatory reading argues that making
readers work offered writers ways to shape their reputations and
the futures of their productions. At the same time, the interactive
reading practices they promoted enabled audiences to contribute to
- and contest - writers' burgeoning authority, making books and
reading work for everyone. -- .
