Deadline: January 15, 2016
This international conference, The Arts of Editing: Past, Present and Future, to be held in Stockholm between August 17 -19, 2016, will mark the end of the programme, celebrate its achievements, and explore future collaboration and new avenues of research. In addition to key-note lectures and selected papers, three panel sessions will focus on experiences gained from the Ars Edendi programme, other large and collaborative editorial ventures, and the future role and responsibility of editors in a changing scholarly environment. Confirmed keynote speakers include Cynthia Damon, David Greetham, Odd-Einar Haugen, Dorothea Weber and Jan Ziolkowski.
Proposals for papers are invited on crucial methodological decisions, the impact editorial choices have on the reception of texts, as well as broader reflections on the responsibility of the editor as both an interpreter of texts and a mediator between cultures. Presenters will be asked to respect a 20-minute limit on their papers.
