This paper tests a typology for text revisions that has been developed in collaboration with Andrea Hofmeister-Winter (cf. preceding paper) against a practical example: the manuscript Graz, UB, Ms. 781. The implied scenario is a genetic online presentation of the German marginal texts Konrad’s of Heimesfurt hinvart, Seckauer Brautwerbungsspruch, Seckauer Margaretenlegende, and Seckauer Marienleben. The texts, which are heterogeneously edited, have not yet been studied in regard to text revisions. For this project, they were transcribed according to the Graz dynamic editing method and an evaluation of this base text indicates that a digital representation of the texts and revisions would be the best means for answering text-genetic research questions. The basis for this is a TEI-XML model of the source texts that incorporates the typology for text revisions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
