Böcker av Friedrich A. Kittler

Collection of essays from throughout the author's career.

Part technological history of the emergent new media in the late 19th century, part theoretical discussion of the responses to these media-including texts by Rilke, Kafka, and Heidegger, as well as elaborations by Edison, Bell, Turing, and other innovators-this book analyzes this momentous shift using insights from Foucault, Lacan, and McLuhan.
