DIGITAL LITERARY ANNOTATION NEWSLETTER NO. 53 (FEBRUARY 2021)

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

TEASYS – NEWS

One of our PhD students recently published /Self-Annotated Literary  
Works 1300-1900: An Extensive Collection of Titles and Selected  
Metadata/[1], which lists more than 1100 literary works that feature  
self-annotations, i.e. marginal notes, footnotes, or endnotes written  
by the author of the work. The collection also provides information on  
the layout of these self-annotations and lists a wealth of secondary  
literature on the topic of authorial annotation. It is available as  
pdf, HTML file, XML file, and Microsoft Access file.

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

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.
