Okay, I'm going to live-tweet another article! This time it's Goldstone, Andrew and Ted Underwood. "The Quiet Transformations of Literary Studies: What Thirteen Thousand Scholars Could Tell Us." New Literary History, vol. 45, no. 3, 2014, ideals.illinois.edu/bitstream/hand… #dhintro18 (Okay, to be fully truthful -- I'm not exactly live-tweeting it, as I read it several days ago, but everyone was tweeting about Kavanaugh and it felt rude to happily tweet about how neat this article is while that was happening)
