DIGITAL LITERARY ANNOTATION NEWSLETTER NO. 7 (APRIL 2017)
 
TEASYS – NEWS
Next semester, Prof. Dr. Bauer offers a course on annotating  
metaphysical poetry[1]. Using the Tübingen Explanatory Annotations  
System, the students will annotate selected sonnets by renowned  
representatives such as John Donne, Henry Vaughan, and George Herbert.  
The course will thus revolve around the processes of writing  
explanatory annotations in smaller groups of students while reflecting  
on annotations as a tool for accessing difficult pieces of literature.
The Annotating Literature Project will present a poster and offer a  
workshop at the “Tübinger Fenster für Forschung 2017[2]”. During the  
workshop, participants will take a short quiz in order to understand  
their text comprehension before and after having read our annotations.

The ANNOTATED WEB EDITION DIRECTORY is looking forward to your  
suggestions. We are always on the look-out for new entries to add to  
the list. Feel free to recommend literary digital editions that  
include explanatory annotation (of the social or the editorial kind),  
web platforms, tools and applications that enable the user to  
(collaboratively) annotate texts. Please use the corresponding form on  
our webpage[3]. We thank you for your help.
