It is only a year since the Institute of Documentology and Scholarly Editing (IDE) undertook an initiative entitled “Codicology and Palaeography in the Digital Age”. Yet its first results have already been written up and published: in July 2009, the anthology “Codicology and Palaeography in the Digital Age” was launched at an international symposium in Munich. Despite the fact that the anthology gives a broad insight into theory and practice, some relevant subjects and questions have not been covered. For this reason the IDE plans to publish a second volume of “Codicology and Palaeography in the Digital Age”. (for a French description of the first volume see http://www.palaeographia.org/apices/dotation.htm; cf. http://calenda.revues.org/nouvelle12755.html)
It is only a year since the Institute of Documentology and Scholarly Editing (IDE) undertook an initiative entitled “Codicology and Palaeography in the Digital Age”. Yet its first results have already been written up and published: in July 2009, the anthology “Codicology and Palaeography in the Digital Age” was launched at an international symposium in Munich. Here, experts from all over the world met as a community to share their knowledge, interests and concerns regarding digital issues in the various fields of manuscript research.
The feedback on both the anthology and the conference has been remarkably positive, not least from experts who are less acquainted with digital methods. For the first time, widely dispersed, cutting-edge research in the field of computer-aided codicology and palaeography can be surveyed and assessed as a whole phenomenon.
Yet, despite the fact that the anthology gives a broad insight into theory and practice, some relevant subjects and questions have not been covered. For this reason the IDE plans to publish a second volume of “Codicology and Palaeography in the Digital Age”. The following questions in particular should now be addressed:
Contributions which explore these and similar subjects (cf. previous CfP) are most welcome and can be submitted in English, French, German or Italian. Again, the launch of the volume will be accompanied by an international symposium. Proposals of not more than 500 words should be sent by 30 November 2009 to kpdz-ii@i-d-e.de or any of the editors listed below.
