Scalable Reading of 18th Century "Collected Editions". The example of Friedrich von Hagedorn.

“全书”作为作家“毕生之作”的集合，是文坛的中心媒介。它对作者的自我形象至关重要，对读者、出版商和图书馆都具有重要意义。最后但并非最不重要的一点是，版本对作家和作品的经典化过程有着重要的影响。因此，令人惊讶的是，对这类书籍的研究很少，除了个别例子之外，关于版本内文本的顺序原则的历史、它们的副文本特征以及文本是如何选择和构成的，人们知之甚少。这一研究的渴望是着眼于18世纪，在18世纪，这类书籍以一种令人震惊的方式出现。目前的“萨赫贝希尔夫”以弗里德里希·冯·哈格多恩(1708-1754)为例，他的作品的许多版本和这些版本的重印在18世纪出版。在定性的文学和图书历史方面，该项目将研究18世纪期间作品的版本是如何汇编、整理和重印的，它们配备了哪些副文集，以及它们是如何为特定的市场和受众准备的。此外，还将对哈格多恩的《Verbesserungsästhetik》(Steffen Martus)的实践进行实证调查。由于要研究的作品的版本数量和要研究的卷的数量太多，无法进行人工处理，因此将采用数字人文的方法(文件分析、文本重用、序列比对)。在方法上，本项目旨在展示数字人文的哪些工具可以用于作品版本的比较研究。双方的相互作用--定量和定性方法--对项目的方法和与内容有关的主旨至关重要。结果将被记录在两篇论文中，一篇记录在VD18中，另一篇记录在Göttingen子图书馆的数字图书馆集合中。卫生署会在政府资讯科技中心提供卫生署工具，以供重复使用。

The book type of Collected or Complete Editions as a collection of the "life's work" of an author is a central medium in the literary world. It is essential for the self-image of authors and has great significance for readers, publishers, and libraries. Last but not least, editions of works have a significant impact on the process of canonization of authors and works.It is therefore surprising that this type of book has been little researched and that not much is known beyond individual examples about the history of the ordering principles of texts within editions, their paratextual features, and how texts were selected and constituted. This research desideratum is to be remedied with a view to the 18th century, in which this type of book emerged in a farreaching way.The present "Sachbeihilfe" takes Friedrich von Hagedorn (1708-1754) as an example, an author of whom numerous editions of works and reprints of these editions were published in the 18th century. In terms of qualitative literary and book history the project will examine how editions of works were compiled, arranged, and reprinted in the course of the 18th century, with which paratexts they were equipped, and how they were prepared for certain markets and audiences. In addition, the practice of Hagedorn's "Verbesserungsästhetik" (Steffen Martus) will be empirically investigated. Since the number of editions of works and thus of volumes to be studied is too large for manual processing, methods of the Digital Humanities (Document Analysis, Text Reuse, Sequence Alignment) will be employed. Methodologically, this project aims to show which tools of the Digital Humanities can be used for the comparative research of editions of works. The interplay of both sides, the quantitative and the qualitative approach, is essential for the methodological and the content-related thrust of the project. Results will be recorded in two dissertsations, in the VD18 and in a collection of the Digital Library of the SUB Göttingen. DH tools will be made available on GitHub for reuse.
