Notes on the Eighteenth Century
Lisa Maruca
I am an Associate Professor of English at Wayne State University specializing in the intertwined histories of the book, literacy and technology, especially in the 18th Century. These interests lead me into the Digital Humanities, where I'm most interested in teaching with and about new media. Syllabi and the occasional blog post can be found at Mechanick Exercises, http://lmaruca.wordpress.com/
