The analysis further situates two con…[Read more]

What do you do when you are an instructional designer and also do DH? This paper shows the intersections of good online course design with digital humanities pedagogy.

The epilogue tackles the ramifications of these new modes of inscribing temporally and visually ambiguous articulations of Shakespeare and China into a global vernacular in theater (Lin Zhaohua’s Richard III) and cinema (Feng Xiaogang’s The Banquet).
