Provocative yet sober, Digital Critical Editions examines how
transitioning from print to a digital milieu deeply affects how
scholars deal with the work of editing critical texts. On one hand,
forces like changing technology and evolving reader expectations
lead to the development of specific editorial products, while on
the other hand, they threaten traditional forms of knowledge and
methods of textual scholarship. Using the experiences of
philologists, text critics, text encoders, scientific editors, and
media analysts, Digital Critical Editions ranges from philology in
ancient Alexandria to the vision of user-supported online critical
editing, from peer-directed texts distributed to a few to
community-edited products shaped by the many. The authors discuss
the production and accessibility of documents, the emergence of
tools used in scholarly work, new editing regimes, and how the
readers' expectations evolve as they navigate digital texts. The
goal: exploring questions such as, What kind of text is produced?
Why is it produced in this particular way? Digital Critical
Editions provides digital editors, researchers, readers, and
technological actors with insights for addressing disruptions that
arise from the clash of traditional and digital cultures, while
also offering a practical roadmap for processing traditional texts
and collections with today's state-of-the-art editing and research
techniques thus addressing readers' new emerging reading habits.
