Edition ohne Transkription, oder: Wie wollen wir künftig große Briefkorpora erschließen?
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Buber-Korrespondenzen Digital is a project focusing on the 41 000 preserved letters exchanged between Martin Buber and more than 7000 different correspondents. Due to the size of this corpus, the project has developed the concept of ‘modular editing’, which allows for different categories of documentation, ranging from simple bibliographic to content-related metadata and ‘full edition’. In this context, the responsibility of the future editor to help users find the texts relevant to them is highlighted. By discussing the concepts of ‚Regestausgabe‘, ‘semantic annotation’ (Dumont), ‘assertive edition’ and ‘proto-edition’ (Vogeler), the article attempts to situate the project within the landscape of scholarly editing.
