Literature is not simply a body of texts; it is a cultural technology, affected by changing patterns of production and consumption. Witness the 'cult of celebrity', the phenomenal recent growth of literary festivals, literary internet sites, reading groups, changing patterns of literary marketing, education, employment and leisure. Academic scholarship, largely text-based, fails to engage with these public and popular phenomena. Our project develops methods for describing and evaluating how these practices construct literary value and cultural identity, in ways that will bring academic literary analysis into a more informed, more creative engagement with public and popular culture in Australia.

文学不仅仅是文本的主体；它是一种文化技术，受到生产和消费模式变化的影响。见证“名人崇拜”、文学节、文学网站、阅读团体近年来的惊人增长，以及不断变化的文学营销、教育、就业和休闲模式。学术学术大多以文本为基础，未能涉及这些公共和流行现象。我们的项目开发了一些方法来描述和评估这些实践如何构建文学价值和文化认同，从而将学术文学分析带入澳大利亚公众和流行文化的更明智、更具创造性的参与中。
