Consider the importance of holding, and studying the physical book and its value for historians and researchers.
About this Event

Instead of studying the book as an individual author's work, book historians pay attention to its architecture, and processes of book production. They focus on publication contexts that might impact the meaning contained in the book. Dr Lucy Collins, Professor Porscha Fermanis, Eoin McCarney, and Dr Tapasya Narang will reflect on the importance of holding, and studying the physical book and its value for historians and researchers. The event will be chaired by Professor Eugene McNulty.


The panel features:

Dr Lucy Collins, Associate Professor, School of English, Drama and Film, UCD

Eoin McCarney, Head of Published Collections, National Library of Ireland

Dr Tapasya Narang, Postdoctoral Researcher, Irish Research Council, National Library of Ireland and School of English, Drama and Film, UCD

Professor Porscha Fermanis, Professor, School of English, Drama and Film, UCD

Moderator: Professor Eugene McNulty, School of English, Dublin City University.


This event will be held in the Joly Lecture Theatre at the National Library of Ireland.
