#vindication

Digital Humanities is just another name for Digital Publishing

Publishing Studies has taught me…- editing praxis for media-based texts- the arbitrariness of style guides- the ethics of access/ibility and preservation- the importance of building communities & infrastructure- the importance of global communication practices- the necessity of teaching writing in use-contexts- the necessity of teaching multimodal communication- that vocational training isn’t a dirty word for liberal arts

THANK YOU.
