WHAT IS EDITING TEXTS • preparing a new representation of wording • aspects • work: virtual entity • document: concrete entity • text: abstract entity
TYPES OF EDITION • pragmatical edition • creating new representation on base of any former record • critical edition • creating the right wording of the text (canonical text – archetype – Ur-Text) • contextual edition • finding intra-textual relations = individual style • finding inter-textual connections = context sensu stricto • identifying trans-textual level = context sensu largo
