DTU teachings: What? Digital Textual Criticism (theory)

What? Digital Textual Criticism (theory)

Teacher: Christopher Morse

This session will introduce students to textual criticism, primarily in the context of digital editions. Topics explored include how we define a text, the establishment of textual authority, and the debates concerning the creation of textual editions, both analog and digital. After an introduction to concepts and a discussion of historical examples, students will create their own digital editions within Juxta, a text collation environment for the web.
