DIGITAL LITERARY ANNOTATION NEWSLETTER NO. 48 (SEPTEMBER 2020)

-------------------------

TEASYS – NEWS

The Annotating Literature student group mentors are currently  
preparing for a new and exciting semester! Due to the continuing  
Corona crisis and constantly changing regulations, the groups will  
continue to meet (online) during the winter term. For a short  
introductory presentation that will provide you with some basic  
information on how to participate in our project, you can follow the  
link here[1].

Next semester, Angelika Zirker will be offering an online course on  
“The Theory and Practice of Annotation: Philology and the Digital  
Humanities”. The class will be concerned with the history of  
annotation from a philological and hermeneutic perspective. Moreover,  
it will use a number of tools in order to try and see what annotation  
tools can actually ‘do’ – and compare the results yielded by  
annotating a text. The corpus for annotation will be Charles Dickens’s  
/The Chimes/ (1844). It is open for the DH Profile in the various MA  
programmes at the Faculty of Humanities as well as all philology  
students of Tübingen University that have concluded their advanced  
module in literary and/or cultural studies of the English Seminar.

-------------------------

The Annotated Web Edition Directory[2] 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. We thank you for your help.
