This volume offers new and challenging interdisciplinary approaches
to the use and study of literary archives. Interrogating literary
and archival methodology and foregrounding new forms of textual
scholarship, the collection includes essays from both academics and
archivists to address the full complexity of the study of modern
literary archives. The authors examine the increasing prominence of
archives and their importance to the interdisciplinary study of
textual history in the 21st century, exploring both emerging and
established areas of literary history. The book is marked by its
attention to four distinct core threads that allow the authors to
traverse a range of historical periods and literary figures:
archival theory and textual production, authorial legacies and
digital cultures, gender issues in the archive, and the practical
concerns of archival research and curatorship. By offering an
investigation of material from a range of historical periods within
distinct methodological groupings, the volume seeks to encourage
interplay between scholars working in different fields around
similar essential questions of methodology, whilst presenting a
rich account of archives worldwide.
