Studia Latina Stockholmiensia (ISSN 2002-472X) is a peer-reviewed series of scholarly editions of Latin texts as well as monographs and anthologies of Latin studies. While continuing Stockholm University’s tradition of Medieval studies, the series is also open to Latin from the Ancient and the Modern periods. The textual editions include an introduction, a critical apparatus and usually a translation. The literary, linguistic and other philological studies of Latin feature a range of methodological approaches, both modern and traditional. SLS includes Ars Edendi Lectures as a sub-series. Studia Latina Stockholmiensia was previously included in the series Acta Universitatis Stockholmiensis (ISSN 0491-2764).
The Ars Edendi Lectures have been organized by the research programme at Stockholm University funded by Riksbankens Jubileumsfond during the years 2008-2015, with a focus on editorial methods for dynamic textual traditions of medieval Greek and Latin texts.
This fourth volume gathers contributions both on the fundamentals of editing, as in Glenn Most ‘What is a critical edition?’, and looking at specifics such as marginalia (Teeuwen), errors (Maggioni), musical notation (Atkinson). Two papers focus on digital tools in editing Greek (Dendrinos) and Latin and early Romance (Robinson) texts. Richard Janko describes the challenges in making out words in Herculaneum papyri. Both traditional and innovative approaches are contemplated in this rich and varied collection by leading experts in the field of editing.
