Subject: Literature and Visual Technologies
Literature and Visual Technologies
An international conference at St John's College Oxford
18-19 September 2000
For over a century, literature has been assailed by an explosion of visual
media, from the stereotype and the zooprixiscope, through cinema and
television, to contemporary digital innovations. How has literature adapted
to this century of spectacle? To what extent are modernism and
postmodernism formal and stylistic reactions to the challenges posed by
these new technologies of the visible?
Keynote speakers: Colin MacCabe, Annette Mitchelson and Laura Marcus.
