John Duffy Society-Two Day Text Editing Workshop Day 2

Date: 

Friday, April 22, 2022, 2:00pm to 3:15pm

Location: 

Zoom

A two-day workshop led by Richard Tarrant (Classics, Emeritus) and Alexander Riehle (Classics), intended to introduce methods and challenges of editing texts beyond the basics of collation. Day 1 (Thursday) will feature broader discussion of stemmatics and open traditions from both traditional and New Philological perspectives. Day 2 (Friday) will focus on practical case studies involving specific issues like punctuation, interpolation, and the challenges posed by large traditions. Please register in advance (for each day separately) to receive the readings.

 

Workshop will take place on Zoom. Both days will consider topics relevant to both ancient and medieval texts. Examples discussed on Day 2 will be drawn from Greek and Latin; knowledge of one or both languages is useful but not required for either day. All members of the community—students, faculty, and beyond—are welcome to attend.
