Voice, Text, Hypertext illustrates brilliantly why interest in
textual studies has grown so dramatically in recent years. For the
distinguished authors of these essays, a “text” is more than a
document or material object. It is a cultural event, a matrix of
decisions, an intricate cultural practice that may focus on
religious traditions, modern “underground” literary movements,
poetic invention, or the irreducible complexity of cultural
politics. Drawing from classical Roman and Indian to modern
European traditions, the volume makes clear that to study a text is
to study a culture. It also demonstrates the essential importance
of heightened textual awareness for contemporary cultural studies
and critical theory—and, indeed, for any discipline that studies
human culture.
