A bibliography is coming soon.<\/h4>\n

In the meantime, why not read:<\/h4>\n

Jorge Luis Borges, “Pierre Menard, Author of the Quixote,” in which Menard painstakingly produces a copy of fragments of the Hidalgo’s 17th-century novel, identical in word and matter, but “infinitely richer.”<\/p>\n

George Perec’s\u00a0Life: A User’s Manual<\/em> (1978), in which a wealthy Englishman attempts to spend a life transforming a ream of Whatman paper back into itself, but fears he will be thwarted by a fiendishly competitive maker of jigsaw puzzles.<\/p>\n

Italo Calvino’s\u00a0If on a Winter’s Night a Traveler <\/em>(1979), in which Silas Flannery plans to copy Crime and Punishment<\/em>, word for word, and page for page.<\/p>\n

Or check out:<\/h4>\n

A printer’s collective in Oxfordshire in 2018 recreated the black page from Sterne’s Tristram Shandy<\/em>, volume 1.\u00a0 They discuss it here: https:\/\/www.39steppress.co.uk\/alas-poor-yorick<\/a><\/p>\n

The Sterne Trust in 2010 commissioned 169 artists to create motley emblems of their\u00a0<\/em>work, in homage to Sterne’s page.\u00a0 See it here:\u00a0https:\/\/emblemofmywork169.blogspot.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Since at least 1925, Tristram Shandy<\/em> has been attractive to prestige presses, creating lavish editions of Sterne’s novel to be owned as art objects.\u00a0 The most recent of these is discussed here: https:\/\/www.foliosociety.com\/usa\/blog\/this-folio-life-recreating-one-of-literatures-most-imaginative-books<\/a><\/p>\n

In 2018, Emily Friedman mottled a few emblems as a classroom exercise, using modern materials and techniques.\u00a0 Her discussion of the experiment is here: https:\/\/hcommons.org\/deposits\/view\/hc:32408\/CONTENT\/emily-friedman_ts-marbling_js.pdf\/<\/a><\/p>\n
