<C Preface > <P 7> In recent years there has been considerable growth in the use of computers in arts research, but as yet there exists no introductory guide to the subject. This book is intended to fill such a need. It is based on a series of lectures given in Oxford, lectures which are mostly attended by those doing research in arts subjects. Chapters One and Two introduce many of the mysteries of the computer and may be skipped by those who are already familiar with the machine. The major areas of computer applications in literary research are covered in subsequent chapters, together with a general view of indexing, cataloguing and information retrievae for historical and bibliographical data. For those whose interest is awakened, the final chapter gives a brief guide on how to start a computer project in the academic world. The examples of computer printout were produced on the <2ICL>2 1906A computer at Oxford University Computing Service, whose help I acknowledge. Kind permission . . .
