98877 - Digital scholarly editing: theory, methods and practice (1) (LM)

Conoscenze e abilità da conseguire

The course aims to present DSE Digital Scholarly Editions through a theoretical approach, showing the different typologies, the coding methods used to create them and some exemplary case studies of mono- and multi-text editions of literary texts (poetry and prose, epistolary and correspondence, essays). In the second part of the course, students will participate in the creation (design, marking, edition, visualization, publication) of a DSE, directly experimenting with the contents learned in the first part of the course,in order to deal critically with the problems linked to text criticism in the new digital ecosystem.
