One of the aspects of the digital age that is especially exciting is the ability to interact not only with source texts<\/em> but to recreate early modern contexts<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The Virtual Paul’s Cross Project<\/a> is particularly fascinating. The project is conceived as “a digital re-creation of John Donne’s Gunpowder Day Sermon” at Saint Paul’s Cross in 1622. The project is multi-sensory, including a 3D digital model<\/a> as well as an acoustic model<\/a> and the full sermon<\/a> from a variety of perspectives.<\/p>\n
