Material Maps in the Digital Age

NEH Summer Seminar for College and University Faculty at the Newberry Library

June 13 - July 6, 2019

Inmany ways, reading historic maps is more productive in the digital age.However, the visual qualities of digital map documents do not displace the need to understand them as material objects. These issues will be atthe heart of Material Maps in the Digital Age, a course of reading, discussion, map study, and research immersed in the Newberry’s extensiveand renowned collection of historic map documents and other humanities materials. This seminar will be mindful of how map research in the humanities, and map literacy itself, is being transformed by the challenges and opportunities posed by the digital revolution.
