I'm super proud to see this article finally out! It's abt enslaved printers, Primus Fowle in particular, and the challenge of doing forms of close reading on the material texts they produced. It's the first work from my next book project to be published! https://muse.jhu.edu/article/734588

I just started reading, this is so useful because I have been working on and off on this critical bibliography piece about Belle Da Costa Greene and her personal MS collection and how she marks her MSS as a form of leaving a record.

Thanks for reading, and that work on Belle da Costa Greene sounds fascinating! I talk about her every semester wrt Black women librarians in the early c20, and have an on again off again essay project with a former student in which she appears!

I have read decades of financial record and stalked her MSS.

Next task is to sit myself down in Italy and read her correspondence.
