Editorial: Pretoria in/im print:

Textual and print cultures and text-as-image in the Capital City

Abstract

The articles featured in this themed section of Image & Text resulted from a oneday workshop with this title, held at the University of Pretoria on 8 May 2014. The event was a collaboration between two initiatives: The then recently launched Andrew W Mellon Foundation-funded Capital Cities Institutional Research Theme of the University of Pretoria, and a markedly loosely-constituted (yet remarkably prolific) decade-old conception which those who freely associate with it, like to call the South African Book History Group.
