  • Europe. Volume 1: A Literary History, 1348-1418. Oxford University Press, 2021. 816p. Paperback. These modern examples, again instances of literary production and response that have to be read in terms of places and layerings, illustrate the key aspect that the book so wonderfully brings to our attention: literature is produced in places that are saturated with text, character, and experience; and these texts migrate, get archived, become parts of libraries and collections, and generate readers and texts in these very places, welcoming itinerant materials and engaging with them. What happens to the reader who dwells in this richness is both a defamiliarization, with regard to established temporal and topographical patterns, and a newfamiliarity with the landscapes and the configurations that make literatures and literary imagination emerge.
