Textuality and Knowledge by Peter Shillingsburg
A collection of essays exploring the role of textual studies in understanding and editing texts, and in understanding the historical developments and cultural differences in editorial and archival systems.“There are big issues at stake in this restless symposium of a book, for it is brave and honestEvery research library serving the humanities needs to order a copy of it, and textual scholars will want to do so as well.”
—Paul Eggert Textual Cultures
“Records the thinking of one of our strongest editorial theorists as the study of the book bent—or did not bend—to the winds of change during the first decade of the millennium.”
—The Library
“Shillingsburg’s insistence that we insist on the importance of provenance in our classrooms and editions is timely, urgent and — as we would expect — supported by the soundest available textual evidence.”
—Barbara Cooke The Journal of the European Society for Textual Scholarship
Peter Shillingsburg was the first Martin J. Svaglic Professor of English and Textual Studies at Loyola University Chicago. He is the author of five books, most recently From Gutenberg to Google: Electronic Representations of Literary Texts.
