Marginalia: Readers Writing in Books  By  H. J. Jackson
2001 | 333 Pages | ISBN: 0300088167 | PDF | 2 MB
From Pierre de Fermat to Samuel Taylor Coleridge to Graham Greene,   readers have related to books through the notes they write in the margins. In this   pioneering book-the first to examine the phenomenon of marginalia-H.J. Jackson   surveys an extraordinary range of annotated books to explore the history of marginalia,   the forms they take, the psychology that underlies them, and the reactions they provoke.    Based on a study of thousands of books annotated by readers both famous and obscure   over the last three centuries, this book reveals the intensity of emotion that characterizes   the process of reading. For hundreds of years, readers have talked to other people in the   margins of their books-not only to authors, but also to friends, lovers, and future   generations.    With an infectious enthusiasm for her subject, Jackson reflects on the cultural and   historical value of writing in the margins, examines works that have invited passionate   annotation, and presents examples of some of the most provocative marginalia.   Imaginative, amusing, and poignant, this book will be treasured by-and maybe even   annotated by-anyone who cares about reading.
