Bauer’s focus module (Haupt-/Oberseminar) on DIGITAL METHODS IN  
LITERARY STUDIES at the University of Tübingen, starting October 19,

literary studies.

Meanwhile, you may wish to find out more about the origin of the

what they are made of, or why they are called “Sally Lunns”? Our  
students have offered answers to these questions in a culinary  
annotation that you can find highlighted here[2].

The Annotated Web Edition Directory[3] is looking forward to your

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.
