Transcribing and Collating for Digital Stemmatology. The Case of Troilus and Criseyde

This paper explores the decisions involved in a digital stemmatology project. Traditionally, transcription, collation, and creation of stemma have been processes linked to edition texts. However, on its own can provide valuable insight further understanding literary works since it sheds light their production process. The research textual tradition Troilus Criseyde offers possibility reconsider what are difficulties implications project this sort. I focus particularly transcription collation. Transcription be affected by aspects such as availability high-quality reproductions manuscripts early printed editions. Then, order produce useful transcriptions that serve purpose project, level detail has established. It is important find balance between overwhelmingly detailed scarcity could result unfruitful transcripts. In regard which process identifying variants, mention characteristics base-text. essential understand variant how work with them so reliable stemmatta produced. Thus, examine case two readings present my research. By end, brief example phylogenetic tree help us distribution variants relationships witnesses bear. With that, also hope usefulness made evident. ResumeCet article explore les prises dans un projet de stemmatologie numerique. Traditionnellement, la collation et d’un etaient des processus lies l’edition textes. Cependant, elle-meme peut fournir informations precieuses qui contribuent une meilleure comprehension d’œuvres litteraires, puisqu’elle eclaircit leur production. La recherche sur textuelle offre possibilite reexaminer difficultes numerique ce genre. Je me concentre en particulier etre affectee par tels que disponibilite haute qualite manuscrits d’editions imprimees anciennes. Ensuite, pour produire utiles atteignent le but du projet, il faut etablir niveau details. Il est trouver l’equilibre entre massivement detaillees celles sont peu eviter resultats infructueux. En concerne d’identifier variantes, je mentionne caracteristiques buts texte base. essentiel comprendre c’est variante, ainsi facon dont traiter fiables puissent produits. Par consequent, j’examine cas deux lectures presentes ma recherche. fournis exemple arbre phylogenetique nous aider variantes relations temoignent Criseyde. Dans cet esprit, j’espere aussi rendre evidente l’utilite numerique. Mots-cles: transcription; collation; stemmatologie; phylogenetique; Chaucer;
