Abstract

The history of hypertext has been dominated by the history of the World Wide Web. However, the inventor of hypertext, Theodor Nelson, has long viewed the web as a deeply problematic implementation of his ideas and advocated for his own hypertext system known as Project Xanadu.

Based on close reading of Nelson’s work, this essay shows how Xanadu was an instance of the kind of media structure that Nelson saw as most liberating and empowering.
