Every bookworm in Phoenix knows that one of the best ways to ride out triple-digit temperatures is to chill out indoors with a good summer read. And for one of Arizona State University's newest faculty members, Assistant Professor Brandi Adams, reading is always top of mind.
Adams is one of a cluster hire of faculty who will work both under the Department of English and the Arizona Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies. Her many scholarly interests include book history, the history of reading and the early history of artificial intelligence, early modern automata and how studying literature can have an impact on computing...
This fall, Adams will be teaching an introductory course on literary criticism. But while the mercury is still rising, ASU Now sat down with her to learn more about what it means to study the history of books and reading, and also get some stellar summer reading list recommendations.
