Elsewhere I've fully capitulated
to the fact that I can't expand this indefinitely to include the entire
world. Still, Landow and Lanham deserve at least a bit of attention, if
for no other reason than to show that I've encountered them somewhere along
the line as well. Ultimately, I've decided not to include quotes from their
books in this review. On the whole they place greater emphasis to the theorists
of "critical theory" like Barthes, Foucault and Derrida, and I have purposely
attempted to avoid this aspect of (or approach to) hypertext in this review.
So perhaps this is a case where I can actually limit myself without feeling
as though I'm sinning again the promise of hypertext. Landow and Lanham
have made important contributions, but quoting them here wouldn't really
contribute much to the task at hand.
Go to: Should I quote them all?, or
Go to: Prove you're not making
all this up
