Exploring The Society for American Archivists website I read a wonderful feature titled, Archival Theory and Digital Historiography: Selection, Search, and Metadata as Archival Processes for Assessing Historical Contextualization by Joshua Sternfeld, published in The American Archivist journal.
Further browsing led me to their bookstore where I found this gem. I don't want to judge a book by its cover... but God that's beautiful. :) https://i.imgur.com/zR9YJnAl.jpg I've compiled a short list of related lit from the site and will be visiting my city's central library to see if they have any additional resources. |

However, for some reason, e.e. cummings' work gets through. I don't know if it's the phrasing, or cadence, subject matter, or whatever, but I enjoy it. I'm no huge fan, mind you. I've not actively sought his poetry out, but when I've come across it, I've liked what I've read. |

This is the Danish language version of the book titled "Susan Sontag - The Complete Rolling Stone Interview". The Rolling Stone journalist Jonathan Cott interviewed Susan (who's a writer of both fiction and essays) in 1978. Only parts of the interview were used in the magazine, but the full text was published in 2013 in book form, spanning no less than 188 pages, including a newly written foreword by Cott himself. It's pretty amazing stuff. I'm about one third through the interview itself so far and I don't want it to end for another 900 pages. They talk about life, death, cancer, art, rock'n'roll, fascism, Nazi punk and other subjects, and that's just as far as I've read. I would be surprised if I don't end up buying all of her non-fiction books. I love essay collections and written conversations of interesting people talking about interesting topics. Anyone else who can tick those boxes should track this one down. |
