Interdisciplinary Working Groups
To encourage collaboration and interdisciplinary interactions among faculty at the College around both research and teaching, Humanities at Hamilton, with sponsorship from the office of the Dean of Faculty, organizes and supports working groups.
Working groups might be reading groups, works-in-progress workshops, teaching discussion groups, or lecture series. Or they could be something else. The precise nature of the groups will derive from the interests of participants: whatever you want to do together. Our role is to help you get together, to coordinate activities among groups, and to facilitate funding for ambitious projects you might design. Our main desire is to be of service to our community: to support and encourage exciting opportunities to work across disciplinary lines. We encourage participation from people in all disciplines.
All working groups welcome members from across the college. Feel free to contact group leaders, listed on the working group page (links both above and to the left), regarding meetings or to be put on any group's email list.
If you and some colleagues wish to form another working group, please contact us.
Working Groups
Book Arts, Print Culture, Future of the Book
We are interested in the materiality of books, and how they operate as specific media within literary, cultural, socio-political, historical, and religious environments. This includes the media of script and print, as well as newer forms of reading through New Media. Members of the group are also investigating the artistic creation of books, and how book art and design is affecting styles of writing.
