This proposal brings together a range of disciplines, in archive theory, adaptation studies and digital humanities, to develop a methodology to produce the first multi-media scholarly edition of a screen adaptation, using Andrew Davies's (1994) 6-part television serialisation of George Eliot's Middlemarch during the 150th anniversary of its 8-part serialised publication in 1871-2. It will draw substantially on materials from the DMU seed-funded digitisation of the Andrew Davies Papers which were donated to DMU's Special Collections by the writer in 2015 and were the subject of a 2018 BBC documentary Andrew Davies: Rewriting the Classics, which included contributions from Special Collections Archivist Katharine Short and material items.The project will employ for 15 months a post-doctoral Research Fellow (RF), Dr Lucy Hobbs, under the supervision of PI Professor Justin Smith, Co-I Professor Gabriel Egan, Co-I Dr Anna Blackwell and Assistant Archivist Dr Natalie Hayton, to design a multi-layered hypertext of Davies's Middlemarch including production notes, screenplay drafts and correspondences with actors, producers and directors, and additional print, moving image and audio resources from the BBC, Open University, the BFI and the British Library. The resulting digital 'genetic edition', will enable users to follow Davies's approach to adaptation: his responses to the original sources, his extensive process of script revision, and his creative discussions and collaborative re-editing before and during rehearsals. This digital edition will combine original interviews with Davies and his collaborators, extracts from Middlemarch read by an actor, clips from the final filmed production and other multi-media sources with archival evidence of what lies beneath its construction. It will offer the user new ways to explore the process of adaptation. The resource will be launched on an open access website co-hosted at DMU and at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln's George Eliot online archive where it will be beta-tested by the project's special advisor, Dr Beverley Rilett (an Eliot digital humanities expert).This resource has real pedagogical potential for teachers of literature and adaptation from A-level to post-graduate. Educational and academic publishers have already shown significant interest and will be invited to the BL Study Day, alongside representatives from the George Eliot Fellowship keen to explore museum/heritage applications of the resource. The impact of this applied technology has the potential to transform the user's experience of any literary adaptation.Feedback will be collected from users of the edition at the events planned. The British Library will host a George Eliot Study Day (to be opened by Andrew Davies) celebrating the 150th anniversary of Middlemarch featuring the new resource at the centre of a presentation of the BL's George Eliot manuscripts and Davies' George Eliot papers. A virtual exhibition featuring the genetic edition and materials from the Davies archive, and an international webinar (involving academics and students) will be co-hosted by DMU and Nebraska-Lincoln, and will share and debate user responses to the resource. RF Hobbs will maintain a smartphone video diary of the project as a report on the process and commentary on any creative, technical, data-protection or legal challenges encountered. Drs Hayton and Hobbs will co-author a transdisciplinary scholarly article on the benefits and challenges of constructing a multimedia genetic edition informed by archival appraisal and selection theory, copyright law and data protection protocols, aimed at The Library journal. The project's work will be showcased in a special issue of the journal Adaptation (OUP) devoted to Davies's work, co-edited by Hobbs and Co-I Blackwell, and commissioned by Prof. Deborah Cartmell, Director of DMU's Centre for Adaptations and founder of the Association of Adaptation Studies (patron Andrew Davies).

这一提议汇集了档案理论、适应研究和数字人文领域的一系列学科，以开发一种方法来制作第一个多媒体学术版的屏幕改编，使用安德鲁·戴维斯(Andrew Davies)(1994)在乔治·艾略特(George Eliot)的《米德尔马契》(Middlemch)8集连载出版150周年之际(1871-2年)出版的6集电视连续剧。它将大量利用DMU种子基金资助的安德鲁·戴维斯论文的数字化材料，这些论文是作者于2015年捐赠给DMU的特别收藏的，也是2018年BBC纪录片《安德鲁·戴维斯：重写经典》的主题，其中包括特别收藏档案员凯瑟琳·肖特和材料条目的贡献。该项目将聘请博士后研究员露西·霍布斯博士15个月，在派教授贾斯汀·史密斯、联合-I加布里埃尔·伊根教授、联合-I教授安娜·布莱克韦尔博士和助理档案员娜塔莉·海顿博士的指导下，设计戴维斯的米德尔马契的多层超文本，包括生产笔记，剧本草稿和与演员、制片人和导演的通信，以及来自BBC、开放大学、BFI和大英图书馆的更多印刷、移动图像和音频资源。由此产生的数字“基因版”将使用户能够遵循戴维斯的改编方法：他对原始来源的回应，他广泛的剧本修改过程，以及他在排练前和排练期间的创造性讨论和合作重新编辑。这个数字版本将结合对戴维斯和他的合作者的原始采访，由一名演员阅读的米德尔马契节选，最终拍摄制作的剪辑和其他多媒体来源，以及它背后隐藏的档案证据。它将为用户提供探索适应过程的新方法。该资源将在DMU和内布拉斯加-林肯大学乔治·艾略特在线档案馆联合主办的开放访问网站上发布，该项目的特别顾问贝弗利·莱特博士(艾略特数字人文专家)将在那里进行Beta测试。对于从A级到研究生的文学和改编教师来说，这个资源具有真正的教学潜力。教育和学术出版商已经表现出极大的兴趣，并将被邀请参加BL学习日，与乔治·艾略特联谊会的代表一起，热衷于探索该资源的博物馆/遗产应用。这项应用技术的影响有可能改变用户对任何文学改编的体验。将在计划的活动中从版本的用户那里收集反馈。大英图书馆将举办乔治·艾略特学习日(由安德鲁·戴维斯主持)，以庆祝米德尔马契诞辰150周年，以新资源为中心，展示BL的乔治·艾略特手稿和戴维斯的乔治·艾略特论文。DMU和内布拉斯加州-林肯大学将共同主办一个以遗传版本和戴维斯档案材料为特色的虚拟展览，以及一个国际网络研讨会(有学者和学生参加)，并将分享和辩论用户对该资源的反应。RF Hobbs将保留该项目的智能手机视频日记，作为该项目过程的报告，并对遇到的任何创意、技术、数据保护或法律挑战进行评论。海顿博士和霍布斯博士将共同撰写一篇跨学科的学术文章，讨论构建多媒体基因版本的好处和挑战，内容涉及档案鉴定和选择理论、版权法和数据保护协议，目标是针对图书馆期刊。该项目的工作将在专门介绍戴维斯工作的《适应》(OUP)杂志的特刊上展示，该杂志由霍布斯和共同-I Blackwell共同编辑，并受DMU适应中心主任和适应研究协会创始人Deborah Cartmell教授的委托(赞助人安德鲁·戴维斯)。
