"Some 25 years ago Derrida called for a 'cultural graphology' which would study the material practices, institutions, and ideologies of writing. Goldberg takes up this call. . . . He adds a political edge by drawing on ethnographic and sociological themes of writing and literacy as forms of cultural domination. . . . A highly informative and provocative book."—Shakespeare Yearbook
