This project will participate in international efforts to provide full critical resources for the study of the great Austrian Modernist writer, Arthur Schnitzler (1862-1931). There is no other German-speaking author with the established international prominence of Schnitzler still lacking a critical edition. This is in part due to the historical contingency of the bulk of this Jewish writer's papers being saved from Vienna in 1938 and brought to Cambridge, in part also to the challenging nature of the author's handwriting, especially in the earlier documents. The editorial work that has been carried out on his writings is limited, and such editions of individual works or collections of texts as do exist are of mixed quality. With this piecemeal picture, there is a pressing need for a comprehensive and reliable critical edition of the literary and associated writings, with scholarly commentary and apparatus. The fundamental objective here is to reveal the still part-hidden creative identity and writing processes of this very significant author. A large community of scholars - academics and students - would stand to draw great benefit from the new critical resources that are proposed.Schnitzler is an author whose career spans the entire epoch of Classical Modernism (around 1890-1930), accompanying its development with a keen and productive sense of its problems and contradictions. While his work is often viewed through the clichés of certain recurrent themes (love, sex, dream, play, death), it in fact encompasses an extraordinary range, with crucial relevance to many of the key cultural and social discourses of his time. Schnitzler also often worked on individual texts over many years, even decades, and versions of one text would be incorporated into plans for another, not infrequently crossing genre boundaries. There is thus a complex genetic and contextual picture to be developed through the detailed editorial work.The UK team will produce editions of works from the important middle period of Schnitzler's career (1904-1914). This will cover three major canonical texts (the novel, 'Der Weg ins Freie' (1908), and the dramas 'Das weite Land' (1911) and 'Professor Bernhardi' (1912)), as well as five lesser-known dramas using puppet-like figures to explore questions of human agency. Analysis of the genetic development of this set of works will enable a massively enriched appreciation of a number of key themes for Schnitzler: Jewish cultural politics, medical ethics, embodied agency and performance, and the function of space and place. As well as investigating these matters for the purposes of Schnitzler scholarship, the team will explore their relevance to topical matters of concern through a strategic set of impact-related activities.The proposed edition will both provide an opportunity to appreciate the dynamics of the complex creative process that produced Schnitzler's published writings and offer an immensely rich basis for extensive, cultural critical research. At the same time, it will provide a model case for testing and advancing editorial principles and processes. Beyond the provision of reliable texts with critical commentary, the project aims to use innovative digital techniques to develop an exemplary reference resource. At the core of this is the production of an integral, digital edition of the author's works using XML (Extensible Markup Language). The digital edition will be embedded in a publicly accessible online portal, which will also provide other information on the author and his cultural connections and context. The project incorporates plans for a variety of other outputs, intended for both specialist and public benefit. There will be a series of conferences, workshops and symposia, in conjunction with a set of public presentations and performances. The core output through the digital portal will be supplemented by six major print publications, in monograph, edited book and journal form.

该项目将参与国际努力，为研究伟大的奥地利现代主义作家亚瑟·施尼茨勒(Arthur Schnitzler，1862-1931)提供充分的关键资源。没有其他德语作家像施尼茨勒那样在国际上享有盛誉，但仍然缺乏评论版本。这部分是因为这位犹太作家的大部分论文于1938年从维也纳保存下来并被带到剑桥的历史偶然性，部分原因还在于作者笔迹的挑战性，特别是在更早的文件中。对他的著作进行的编辑工作是有限的，现有的个别作品或文集的版本质量参差不齐。在这种零碎的情况下，迫切需要一个全面而可靠的文学和相关著作的评论版本，并带有学术评论和工具。这里的基本目的是揭示这位非常重要的作家仍然部分隐藏的创作身份和写作过程。大量学者--学者和学生--将从提出的新的批评资源中受益。施尼茨勒是一位作家，他的职业生涯跨越了古典现代主义的整个时代(大约1890-1930年)，伴随着古典现代主义的发展，对其问题和矛盾有着敏锐而富有成效的意识。虽然人们经常通过陈词滥调来看待S的某些反复出现的主题(爱情、性、梦想、戏剧、死亡)，但事实上，它包含了一个非同寻常的范围，与他那个时代的许多关键文化和社会话语具有至关重要的相关性。施尼茨勒还经常在多年甚至几十年的时间里研究个别文本，一个文本的版本会被纳入另一个文本的计划中，经常跨越体裁界限。因此，通过详细的编辑工作，需要开发一幅复杂的遗传和背景图。英国团队将制作施尼茨勒职业生涯重要中期(1904-1914)的作品版本。这将涵盖三个主要的经典文本(小说《疯狂的人》(Der Weg ins Freie，1908)，以及戏剧《Das weite Land》(1911)和《Bernhardi教授》(1912))，以及五部鲜为人知的戏剧，使用木偶般的人物来探索人类中介的问题。对这组作品的遗传发展进行分析，将使人们能够大量丰富地欣赏施尼茨勒的一些关键主题：犹太文化政治、医学伦理、具体化的代理和表演，以及空间和场所的功能。除了为了施尼茨勒学术的目的而调查这些问题之外，该团队还将通过一系列与影响相关的战略活动来探索它们与关注的话题的相关性。拟议的版本将提供一个机会来欣赏产生施尼茨勒出版作品的复杂创作过程的动态，并为广泛的文化批判性研究提供非常丰富的基础。同时，它将为检验和推进编辑原则和程序提供一个示范案例。除了提供带有批判性评论的可靠文本外，该项目的目标是利用创新的数字技术开发一种模范参考资料。其核心是使用可扩展标记语言(Extensible Markup Language)制作作者作品的完整数字版本。数字版将嵌入一个可公开访问的在线门户网站，该门户网站还将提供有关作者及其文化联系和背景的其他信息。该项目纳入了各种其他产出的计划，旨在为专家和公共利益服务。将举行一系列会议、讲习班和座谈会，同时还将举行一系列公开演讲和表演。通过数字门户的核心产出将以专著、编辑过的书籍和期刊形式的六种主要印刷出版物作为补充。
