How do digital scholarly text editions differ
from printed ones?
-
careful text coding, enabling:
-
multiple views and versions
-
searchability
-
20,000 manuscript pages digitized
in 5 years, and indispensible reference for students and researchers.
-
Fully searchable, with variant control, word lists and multiple
viewpoints for students:
-
A detailed diplomatic version keeps as much detail
from the original as possible, including deletions, overwritings, substitutions,
spelling mistakes and so on.
-
A simplified normalised version provides a 'readable'
transcription. Only the last changes count, spelling is corrected and normalised.
-
Example: 115 Volume XI. "Philosophische Bemerkungen" (1933-1936)
