The master class Digital Scholarly Editing 2024 (#mcdse2024) teaches techniques of digital scholarly editing practices based on XML. This includes the proposals of the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) as well as theoretical and methodological concepts of digital editions. The presenters convey the basics, introduce best practice tools and recommend sources of further information. The thematic focus is on medieval and early modern editions and associated methods such as source descriptions, scribe identification and text-critical apparatus. The participants will be enabled to independently develop and deepen their editorial and digital skills gathered in the event.
The master class takes place from 19th to 23rd February 2024 in Saarbrücken, at Saarland University. It was initiated by the research project “Sorores” (https://sorores.hypotheses.org/) and is carried out by the Institute for Documentology and Scholarly Editing (IDE, https://www.i-d-e.de/). Participation is free of charge.
As a participant, you are expected to participate continuously and on all days. You have to bring your own computer including an installed Oxygen XML editor with a valid license (e.g. a temporary test license free of charge). You are expected to bring with you a poster presentation of your project for the poster session on Friday. Requirements for this will be sent out after registration. The language of instruction is English.
Interested persons are welcome to contact us by email (to sorores-school@i-d-e.de) with their name, institution and description of their edition project or edition-related research project (ca. 500 words). There is a limited number of bursaries for accommodation and meals available. Please indicate in your application if you would be interested in receiving this. The application deadline is on October 31st, 2023. There will be a waiting list in the event of over-registration.
