The Plot of the Plot
Data visualizations, particularly in the form of word maps and plotted graphs, have become a hallmark of the so-called “digital humanities.” It is important for creators and readers of these depictions to remember that they are not “data” but readings, interpretations of data mediated by programmed algorithms and hermeneutic desires. More important for periodical studies than plots of nodes and edges is the immense graph of the so-called “Semantic Web,” whose network of machine-actionable assertions could enable researchers to combine statements about magazines into rich interpretive maps.

The Rise and Fall of Periodical Studies?
Changes in technology, funding, and collaborative relationships with libraries have cast doubt on the continued development of thematic research collections centered on digitized magazines. This article discusses the differences among technologies of digital remediation and the difference between a digitized library and a digital library, and it traces the history of Blue Mountain, a multifaceted project to create digital resources for the study of avant-garde periodicals. The article concludes with a call to develop a new model of magazine digitization based on the notion of the digital edition.

The Perseus Garner: Early Modern Resources in the Digital Age
This paper describes the Perseus Garner, an experiment in encoding and displaying the dense interlinkage among primary and secondary texts of interest to students and scholars of the Early Modern period. Because these texts co-exist in an integrated digital library, readers can exploit a suite of tools to discover new relationships and ask new questions. Perseus's dense interlinking does more than make connections explicit, however: it foregrounds them in a way that is troubling to those who worry that disturbing the traditional hierarchy of primary sources and secondary commentary will draw readers away from close contact with literature. Despite its shortcomings, the Perseus Garner suggests an aim for this research: a hypervariorum whose mode of conceptualizing and rendering the relationship of text and annotation challenges the traditional model of \"perpetual commentary\" and promises to denature synthetic criticism into a full, turbid stream of scholarly discovery and critical opinion.

The Poetics of Ruptured Mnemosis: Telling Encounters in William Faulkner's \Absalom, Absalom!\
Wulfman argues that Faulkner's ongoing interrogation and ironic revisitings of the past emerge in his most famous historical novel, Absalom, Absalom!, as a critique of memory-making itself, no longer a grounding for integrating self-identity but a process of disruption, self-division, and ultimately trauma. Examining the structure of the novel as shaped by transference, one telling encounter after another, he sees the novel as molded by dynamic of psychic trauma, one suggesting a new kind of writing and consequently a new kind of reading based on poetics of ruptured mnemosis, a means of representing--and involving--disrupted memory processes.
