Reconstructing Readers through a Comparative Analysis of Euclid's 1482 "Elements of Geometry"

Faculty Sponsor: Joan Richards

The world of the reader is at once vast and private. Using analytic frameworks from history, education, print culture, cognitive science and mathematics, Ryan explored this world through an inter-library analysis of marginal notations in copies of the first printed edition of Euclid's "Elements of Geometry."

After graduation Ryan worked as the Program Director at the Rare Books School at the University of Virginia. He is currently the Vice President of Express Medical Billing and Project Consultant for Brandywine Healthcare Services
