Digital Stockholm Syndrome in...

Mark Jarzombek

Once, humans were what they believed. Now, the modern person is determined by data exhaust—an invisible anthropocentric ether of ones and zeros that is a product of our digitally monitored age. Author Mark Jarzombek argues that the world has become redesigned to fuse the algorithmic with the ontological, and the discussion of ontology must be updated to rethink the question of Being. In Digital Stockholm Syndrome in the Post-Ontological Age, Jarzombek provocatively studies the new interrelationship between human and algorithm. 
Forerunners is a thought-in-process series of breakthrough digital works. Written between fresh ideas and finished books, Forerunners draws on scholarly work initiated in notable blogs, social media, conference plenaries, journal articles, and the synergy of academic exchange. This is gray literature publishing: where intense thinking, change, and speculation take place in scholarship.

A Room of One's Own

Virginia Woolf

Virginia Woolf’s A Room of One’s Own is a timeless and thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between women and creativity. Based on a series of lectures delivered at Cambridge University in 1928, this seminal work blends sharp wit, eloquence, and intellectual rigor to examine the systemic barriers that have historically denied women the opportunity to achieve their artistic potential. 
Woolf argues that for women to write—and to thrive—they require financial independence and personal space, both literally and figuratively. Through vivid prose and compelling insights, she interrogates the social and cultural constraints placed on women and challenges readers to consider the enduring impact of inequality on art and literature. 
More than a call to action, A Room of One’s Own is a celebration of the resilience of women writers and a rallying cry for the creation of a world where every voice can be heard. Profoundly relevant today, this masterpiece remains an essential read for anyone interested in gender, creativity, and the power of storytelling.
