| Typology
Facsimile edition: Focuses on the visual layer of texts with additional information for access and understanding; no transcription.
Archive edition: Focuses on the width of a work, the documents of its transmission, its context; aims at completeness.
Documentary edition: Related to the school of “documentary editing”, focuses on the documents rather than on abstract texts; tries to give truthful representations of the documents with (often: diplomatic) transcription and additional information.
Diplomatic edition: Focuses on the text (not the visual layer) of documents, tries to give a transcription as accurate as possible.
Genetic edition: Focuses on the genesis of texts, usually on the level of microgenesis (within a document) sometimes on the level of macrogenesis (across documents).
Work critical edition: Focuses on the (potentially: complete) work of an author, aims at completeness on the level of the abstract work (and what needs to be presented to accomplish this).
Text critical edition: Focuses on the construction of a “best text” or definitive reading by means of textual criticism.
Enriched edition: ’Enriched Edition’ describes digital representations of texts that put a particular emphasis on extracting information from the text, e.g. by elaborate indices, extensive comments and annotations on the content, linking of related information, or formal representation of content.
Database edition: Transforms text and documents into structured data to capture the semantic information.
Digital library: Provides a collection of scholarly material without the approach of critical engagement with single documents, texts, or works; or simple digital facsimiles; not a scholarly digital edition in the sense of the review criteria.
Collection of texts: Textual representations without critical commentary, the application of textual criticism or paratexts that describe, explain or contextualize the texts; not a scholarly digital edition in the sense of the review criteria.
|
Which type fits best for the reviewed project?
(cf. Catalogue 3.3 and 5.1)
|
Diplomatic edition |
| Critical editing
Transmission examined: Attempt to establish the transmission of the text, the results of which are traditionally reflected in a Stemma Codicum.
Palaeographic annotations: Accounts of the palaeographic dimension of a text.
Normalization: The orthography has been normalised according to a chosen standard (e.g. ’seyn’ to ’sein’).
Variants: Accounts of textual variants, i.e. textual differences between documents transmitting the same text.
Emendation: Corrections or revisions have been applied to the text.
Commentary notes: Comments regarding any of the phenomena mentioned before or other textual phenomena (not regarding the content).

| Types of text

Translations: Any translations into languages different from that of the original text.
Commentaries: Scholarly commentary on the content of the documents.
