Abstract
Writing in 2016, Joris van Zundert called on theorists and practitioners to intensify the methodological discourse necessary to implement a form of hypertext that truly represents textual fluidity and text relations in a scholarly viable and computationally tractable manner. Without that dialogue, he warned, we relegate the raison d’être for the digital scholarly edition to that of a mere medium shift, we limit its expressiveness to that of print text, and we fail to explore the computational potential for digital text representation, analysis, and interaction. While such a dialogue has begun in earnest, digital scholarly editing and publishing remain rooted in the cultural and structural logics of print.
Digital editing and publishing in the twenty-first century collects a range of perspectives on the current state and future of digital editing and publishing, in an effort to further that dialogue and encourage continued exploration of how we make and share knowledge and meaning in the digital age.
