解説

This collection presents fourteen essays on annotating eighteenth-century literature. Authored by editors and annotators of current standard editions-such as California's Works of John Dryden, the Florida Edition of the Works of Laurence Sterne, and the Yale Edition of the Works of Samuel Johnson-this book explores theoretical perspectives on critical editing and the practical work of annotation. Through examples from their own editorial work, the contributors illuminate the personal dilemmas and decisions confronting the annotator of texts: What information in the text needs annotation? When does one stop annotating? How does one manage the annotation-versus-interpretation problem?

Brimming with erudition, Notes on Footnotes showcases the precision and attentiveness of some of the world's foremost editors and annotators. The book is necessary reading-not only for scholars of the eighteenth century but also for scholarly editors of texts of all historical periods, book historians, and book lovers in general.

In addition to the editors, the contributors include Kate Bennett, Robert DeMaria Jr., Michael Edson, Robert D. Hume, Stephen Karian, Elizabeth Kraft, Thomas Lockwood, William McCarthy, Maximillian E. Novak, Shef Rogers, Robert G. Walker, and Marcus Walsh.
