Shakespeare in Community: The Book as Object and Interface
Channel: Jesse Stommel
Date: 2015-04-26

This video introduces us to how the works of Shakespeare wind up in the book format. We also see continuity into one of today's formats, the iPad. Actual rare books, held by University of Wisconsin-Madison Special Collections, appear as examples. We can freeze or pause the video and look at a page in a book printed in 1632 or 1640! http://www.coursera.org/course/virtualshakespeare
