"Accessible, timely, and practical." --Legacy"Relevant not only to practitioners and theorists of digital humanities but also to students and scholars of 19th-century American literature. . . . Highly recommended." --Choice"In this compelling collection of essays, Travis and DeSpain explore the many ways in which digital humanities scholarship is remaking the pedagogy of nineteenth-century American literature. Teaching with Digital Humanities highlights the virtues of estrangement--how we can better see books, manuscripts, and newspapers once they've been tagged, aggregated, or otherwise reconfigured. Both the material forms of texts and the contents they convey are ripe for fresh analysis in a digital environment. This book is an invaluable guide to teaching within a new horizon of possibility introduced by digital methods."--Kenneth M. Price, coeditor of The Walt Whitman Archive
