Description

Digital environments enable our studying and representing texts and manuscripts in radically enhanced ways. As a result, not only have traditional practices been perfected, also new concepts and forms—such as those of a digital edition, a digital library, and a digital archive—are now giving stimulus to new theories and critical approaches. In this session, we seek to promote discussion around how digital environments are changing our examination and representation of texts and the codices that contain them.
