Ada Palmer is a University of Chicago Renaissance historian (and so much more: librettist, science fiction novelist, and all-round polymath); she has convened a series of seminars at the University in collaboration with science and piracy historian Adrian Johns, and me! We're exploring the parallels between the censorship systems that sprang up at the advent of the printing press and the information control battles we've seen since the dawn of the internet. The first session ("Introduction, Censorship & Information Control During Information Revolutions") is tomorrow, hosted by the three of us.
