Traditional critical editing, defined by the paper and print
limitations of the book, is now considered by many to be inadequate
for the expression and interpretation of complex works of
literature. At the same time, digital developments are permitting
us to extend the range of text objects we can reproduce and
investigate critically - not just books, but newspapers, draft
manuscripts and inscriptions on stone. Some exponents of the
benefits of new information technologies argue that in future all
editions should be produced in digital or online form. By contrast,
others point to the fact that print, after more than five hundred
years of development, continues to set the agenda for how we think
about text, even in its non-print forms. This important book brings
together leading textual critics, scholarly editors, technical
specialists and publishers to discuss whether and how existing
paradigms for developing and using critical editions are changing
to reflect the increased commitment to and assumed significance of
digital tools and methodologies.
