The project will construct a Virtual Variorum Edition (VVE) of Cervantes' (1547-1616) influential "Don Quixote de la Mancha". The VVE, based on available-quality microfilmed images of the original editions published during Cervantes' life, will contain the important editions of the work in image and text; annotation of the variances present among the editions to enable comparison; derivative editions, generated as the result of scholarly analysis of the variances and bearing supporting reasoning; and commentary by experts that illuminates elements of texts and of the comparisons among editions. The project's focus is on the digital representation, interlinking, and dissemination of the many computer-based manifestations of the documents and commentary. It will prototype an end-to-end effort; from front-end acquisition of materials through flexible back-end presentation to readers. The VVE, even in prototype form, will be an important artifact, with potential to become the standard research tool used by Cervantes scholars. It will, for the first time, make the resource of multiple rare editions of the "Quixote" easily available in primary-source form. The project will have implications for Digital Library projects involving the humanities, both as an demonstration of what can be achieved today but also through development and validation of techniques.

该项目将构建塞万提斯(1547-1616)颇具影响力的《唐吉柯德·德拉曼查》的虚拟变奏版(VVE)。VVE以塞万提斯生前出版的原始版本的现有质量缩微胶片图像为基础，将包含作品的重要版本的图像和文本；对版本之间存在的差异进行注释以进行比较；作为对差异和支持推理的学术分析的结果生成的派生版本；以及说明文本要素和版本间比较的专家评论。该项目的重点是文件和评注的许多以计算机为基础的表现形式的数字表示、链接和传播。它将成为端到端工作的原型；从前端获取材料到灵活的后端展示给读者。VVE，即使是原型形式，也将是一个重要的艺术品，有可能成为塞万提斯学者使用的标准研究工具。它将第一次使“堂吉诃德”的多个稀有版本的资源以初级来源的形式容易地获得。该项目将对涉及人文学科的数字图书馆项目产生影响，既是对今天可以取得的成就的展示，也是通过开发和验证技术来实现的。
