Abstract "This edited collection explores the multiple dimensions of authorship that constitute the "ecology" of writing. Examining the early 20th century to the present, Ecologies of Writing expands our understanding of this period of dramatic media-technological transition in which writers become increasingly self-reflexive and responsive to the materials and changing environments of their craft. Drawing from works in German literature and theory, contributors expand this framing to encompass the vast array of material, social, environmental, and economic influences that all inform the practice of writing"-- Provided by publisher.
