Summary

The session presents three research projects in digital scholarly editing. First, Martine Clouzot discusses the ‘Living Book’ project on medieval illuminations, focusing on collaborative creation and diffusion. Second, a team presents the Anthologie Palatine platform, which explores a digital anthology of Greek epigrams. Third, Benoît Epron and Catherine Muller introduce the ‘Abécédaire des mondes lettrés’, a collaborative writing tool using an alphabetic structure. The presentations highlight the challenges of digital editions, including text encoding, navigation, and reader engagement. They also discuss the use of XML, platforms, and interactive visualizations. The session concludes with perspectives on linking research and publication in digital humanities.

Critical Evaluation

Value of the Information & Strength of the Argument

The video provides valuable insights into contemporary digital editing practices. Each case study demonstrates concrete examples of how researchers are rethinking scholarly communication. The argumentation is grounded in practical experience, showing the evolution from traditional printed editions to dynamic digital platforms. The speakers emphasize the importance of collaboration and open access, and they critically assess the limitations and possibilities of digital tools. The presentations are informative, though sometimes technical details are not fully explained to a general audience.

Scientific Rigor, Source Quality, Title Accuracy

The presentations are based on ongoing research projects, and the speakers are clearly experts in their fields. However, the video does not provide explicit citations to external literature, relying instead on the researchers’ own work. The title accurately reflects the content: it is a session dedicated to case studies in scientific editing. The recording is a seminar, so the quality is acceptable but not highly produced. No comments are provided, so public reception cannot be assessed.
