Book part: Opening the depths, not sliding on surfaces
Abstract
N. Katherine Hayles discusses the advantages of social and
algorithmic reading and reaffirms the value of deep reading;
she doubts media literacy requires media abstinence; she
underlines the importance of the Humanities for ‘understanding
and intervening’ in society but questions the idolized ‘rhetoric
of “resistance”’ and she weights the real problems facing the
Digital Humanities against unfounded fears.
