As part of its ongoing work, the project team endeavors to produce publications and presentations that report on methods developed, theoretical consequences of digital intertextual search, and applied literary studies. The Tesserae project is by nature collaborative and interdisciplinary, and we welcome feedback from users and interested scholars.
This work has been supported by a Start-Up Grant and a Digital Humanities Advancement Grant from the Office of Digital Humanities of the National Endowment for the Humanities.
