Course objectives
Edition rules and the procedure of preparing a text for a critical edition. The preparation of a text from the starting phase (sources looked for, collected and compared, attribution of a text, determining the text which will be used for the edition) to the final phase (the final form of the text for print, including critical commentary). The aims of the course are:
to learn how to find a proper text for editing
to manage basic procedures of editorial work
to become familiar with editing marks
to process a short text and make it ready for publishing.
Syllabus
  • (1) Reference literature and its evaluation. Proof-reading marks. (2-4) Concrete explanation of edition rules and textual modifications in 19th and 20th century texts. (5-6) Test textological preparation of short texts (three to four pages), their control and evaluation. Each participant in the seminar will prepare an independently chosen text and will provide it with a short editorial note. (7-14) Collective work with a text - collective preparation of a critical edition of one or two fairy-tales by Božena Němcová (eventually a different text after consultation in the seminar).
