Abstract

Medieval monks divided the Bible into an inventory of its parts as an aid to fallible human memory. Digital technology enables much more radical applications of this divide-and-conquer strategy. I discuss the potential of these new developments as well as the resistance to them, using Shakespeare as a model case.
