        Subject: SoFCB Roundtable on the “Material Turn” in Bibliography and Philology, Jan 19, 2024

Dear Colleagues,

We are delighted to announce a virtual roundtable “Book-Objects at the
Crossroads of Bibliography and Philology” that will take place on January 19,
2024 (9:00 PST / 12:00 EST / 17:00 GMT / 18:00 CET / 20:00 AST). This event is
supported by the Andrew W. Mellon Society of Fellows in Critical Bibliography,
Rare Book School, University of Virginia.

Our speakers will be Theodore S. Beers (Freie Universität Berlin), Andrew Hui
(Yale-NUS College), Cat Lambert (Cornell University), and Nur Sobers-Khan (Saudi
Museums Commission). Please register for the roundtable using the following
link: http://tinyurl.com/bdfmdefs.

The roundtable will discuss how the “material turn” in the humanities has
impacted the fields of bibliography and philology across the world. Insofar as
bibliography and philology both exhibit deep-seated interests in the study of
book-objects, how have these two disciplines been influenced by the “material
turn”? By reappraising the philosophical outlook and transformative potential of
the “material turn” in the humanities, we are keen to interrogate the political
and ethical possibilities of critical inquiry in bibliography and philology.

[...] We hope that you will be able to join us for the roundtable and discussion. 
We would appreciate your help in sharing the announcement with scholars and 
students who may be interested.


Best wishes,
Jeremiah and Pranav
