Matthew Brown, Associate Professor of English and the University of Iowa Center for the Book, will be giving the keynote for the “Early American Materialities” symposium on Thursday, May 5 in Bondurant Auditorium

The symposium, sponsored by the Mellon Fellowship of Scholars in Critical Bibliography at Rare Book School and the Department of English, culminates the hard work of my graduate students this semester. They will be giving conference length versions of their final projects (critical and creative) from noon to 4:30 in the Hannah-Ford Room of Bondurant Hall.  While anyone is welcome to attend their papers, the keynote, Brown’s talk, will begin at 5 pm in the Bondurant auditorium. Below is poster for Brown’s talk, “A Phenomenology of the Reading Room: Data, Post-Criticism, and the British American Printshop.”
