Letters,Enhanced Reading and the Presence of Proche
With the emergence of X-ray microtomography,it is possible to read historical letters that are severely damaged or have been sealed.Howev-er,the emergence of reading technology has changed the natural reading experience and created an enhanced reading experience:an enhanced intentional-ity relationship between the reading technology and the human being.The virtual act of reading is not a kind of seeing in the natural sense but a kind of technological"seeing",and the content of what is seen by the virtual act of reading will change.From the point of view of the relationship between memo-ry and life,letters are seen as a specific form of cultural memory,and those damaged and sealed letters have more significance.The emergence of en-hanced reading memory enriches cultural memory and contributes more to our understanding of absent life.
