New Technologies, Old Texts
7-9 July, 2003, De Montfort University, Leicester UK
Canterbury Tales Project, De Montfort University
Deadline for Proposals: December 31, 2002
Proposals are invited for the submission of complete
panels or individual papers devoted to the
interdisciplinary implications of the applications
of new technologies to the editing and study of
texts. We are
looking for papers that explain and evaluate how the
use of computers has changed the way we approach
texts and textual editing.
Topics include but are not limited to: electronic
editions, new technologies for the study of texts,
the impact of technology on editorial theory, the
use of computers in textual studies, computer
software and the study of manuscripts, the role of
the reader, the role of the editor, the process of
publication, printed vs. electronic editions. We
welcome papers which deal with text from any period
and place.
Papers should be no more than 30 minutes in length.
Panels should consist of three papers. Individual
proposals should include a brief abstract (one or
two pages) of the proposed paper as well as the
name, e-mail address, and institutional affiliation
and address of the participant. Panel proposals
should include a session title, the name of a
designated contact person for the session, the
names, e-mail addresses, and institutional addresses
and affiliations of each person involved in the
session, and a one or two-page abstract of each
paper to be presented during the session.
All abstracts should indicate what (if any)
technological support will be requested. Such
support may be limited, so please request only what
is truly needed.
Inquiries and proposals should be sent to:
