TEASYS – NEWS

Happy New Year 2023!
The TEASys project is speeding into its 12th year of reflecting on,  
working with, and especially coming up with new annotations. We are  
looking forward to all the contributions by students that not only  
enrich and advance the project, but also help spark the awareness of  
the benefit of well-devised annotations for the understanding of  
literary texts.

The Annotated Web Edition Directory[1] 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.
