Join the American Printing History Association Conference Closing Keynote featuring Michael B. Winship as he presents "Walt Whitman Makes Weird: Producing the 1855 First Edition of Leaves of Grass." This conference, held at the prestigious Harry Ransom Center in Austin, Texas, on October 14, 2023, will delve into the fascinating story behind the creation of Walt Whitman's groundbreaking collection of poetry. Renowned poet Ralph Waldo Emerson described Leaves of Grass as "the most extraordinary piece of wit and wisdom that America has yet contributed," recognizing its significance at the beginning of Whitman's illustrious career. But it's not just the powerful words that capture attention; the physical book itself stands apart from any other volume of poetry from its time. Through a combination of new and old research, Michael Winship will uncover the unique production process and what makes this book so peculiar. As the Iris Howard Regents Professor Emeritus of English at the University of Texas at Austin, Winship is a leading figure in bibliographic and book history studies, with a particular focus on American literary publishing. In addition to Winship's keynote, conference attendees will have the opportunity to explore the city's vibrant book culture, with tours of the Harry Ransom Center's exhibit, "The Long Lives of Very Old Books," and visits to the Austin Book Arts Center, the Blanton Museum of Art, the Dolph Briscoe Center for American History, and the Benson Latin American Collection. Don't miss this chance to immerse yourself in the rich history of American printing and bookmaking. Register for the conference at https://printinghistory.org/2023-conference/.
