The first of our specialist interviews, in this episode I sit down with Dr. Kristine Moruzi (Senior Lecturer in Literary Studies, Deakin University) to discuss literary history and the lessons it offers to those who seek to study and organise the history of video games. Topics covered include: how literature was distributed and evaluated in the 19th Century, why the study and preservation of literature is important, literary form, the concepts of the Canon and the nature of authorship, and why the representation of historically marginalised groups in art is vital.
