Annotated Edition of the Correspondence between Gottfried Benn and Gertrud Zenzes

该项目旨在制作Gottfried Benn和Gertrud Zenzes之间通信的注释版本，这些通信是他们在1921年至1956年Benn去世期间交换的。这些信件共包括156封信和许多其他附件。毫无疑问，这些论文是属于这位狂热的书信作家的最重要的尚未编辑的信件之一。Zenzes是Benn在1921/22年间的情人，1928年移民到美国，在战后为Benn提供了基本的生活必需品。本恩一直很尊敬她，视她为自己的智力伙伴。最终版本将采用混合形式。印刷版将由Klett-Cotta出版，旨在吸引更广泛的文学公众。除了精心编辑的信件本身，它还将包含详细的评论，精选的附件，大量的插图和索引。数字版将更加以研究为导向，将在晚些时候出版，并在马尔巴赫的德国文学档案馆的文件服务器上以开放获取文件的形式在线提供，该文件很快就会上线。除了印刷版之外，这个版本将包含每个单独信件的数字化版本及其附带的附件，以及转录。这个版本的另一个优点是，在线版本不仅可以连接到平台上流亡人士的现有信件，还可以连接到未来的补编，从而能够在以许多不同方式相互联系的众多信件中进行数字研究。

This project seeks to produce an annotated edition of the correspondence between Gottfried Benn and Gertrud Zenzes which they exchanged between 1921 and the death of Benn in 1956. In all, the correspondence consists of 156 letters and numerous other accompanying enclosures. These papers are without question one of the most important as yet unedited bodies of correspondence belonging to this avid writer of letters. Zenzes was the lover of Benn in the years 1921/22, emigrated to the USA in 1928 and provided Benn with the basic necessities of life in the aftermath of the war. Benn always held her in high regard, seeing her as his intellectual partner. The final edition will be in hybrid form. The printed version, which is intended to appeal to a broader literary public, will be published by Klett-Cotta. In addition to the meticulously edited letters themselves, it will contain a detailed commentary, selected accompanying enclosures, numerous illustrations and an index. The digital edition, which will be more research-orientated, will be published at a later date and be available online as an open access file on the document server at the German Literature Archive in Marbach, which is soon to go online. Going beyond the the printed edition, this edition will contain digitalised versions of each individual letter and its accompanying enclosures, together with transcriptions. A further advantage of this edition is that the online version can be connected not only to existing correspondences of exiled persons on the platform, but also to future supplements, thereby enabling digital research to be conducted across numerous bodies of correspondence which are interlinked in a host of different ways.
