Book Description:

Digital developments have extended the range of text objects we can reproduce and investigate critically. Should all future texts be produced in digital or online form, or does print, developed over five centuries, still influence how we think about text in all its forms? This important book discusses whether, and how, existing paradigms for developing and using critical editions are changing to reflect the increased commitment to, and assumed significance of, digital tools and methodologies.
