摘要
It is an exciting time for the infrastructure humanities, with numerous publications, the formation of the UK's first Infrastructure Humanities Group, and a swell of conferences and panel events on infrastructure appearing in recent years. As infrastructure becomes an increasingly familiar object and method of study in the arts and humanities, this essay reviews three books - two edited collections and one monograph - that were published under the broad umbrella of the infrastructure humanities in 2023. Drawing from these reviews and a series of reflections on the field, the essay offers a sketch of the origins of the infrastructure humanities, a snapshot of current interests and directions, and potential areas for inquiry moving forward.
