John Donne's Sermons Preached at St Paul's Cathedral, 1626-7 (The Oxford Edition of the Sermons of John Donne, vol. 13)

该项目将制作诗人兼传教士约翰·多恩（John Donne, 1572-1631）在1626- 167年担任圣保罗大教堂（St Paul’s Cathedral）院长的13篇布道的批判版，这是他职业生涯中一个丰收期，政治色彩浓厚。这将作为《约翰·多恩讲道》牛津版第13卷出版（16卷，彼得·麦卡洛总编，2013-）；第12卷，1626年在圣保罗教堂，是这个家伙编辑的。这个具有里程碑意义的版本以原始拼写呈现了所有多恩的布道，并首次提供了对文本的完整注释，以及广泛的文本设备和手稿和印刷来源的完整整理。该版本的定义特征是按布道地点组织。这标志着与乔治·r·波特和伊夫林·m·辛普森（1953-62）的上一版相比的重大变化，在上一版中，布道是按时间顺序排列的，没有注释。新版允许读者观察到多恩的修辞是如何面向他不同的会众的，并揭示了在同一地点布道的连续性。第13卷的布道阐明了布道在17世纪公共话语中的重要作用：宗教一致性，外国天主教徒和本土非国教者构成的政治威胁，以及英国教会的自我定义都是这一时期多恩大教堂布道的主要内容，并显示了他对1620年代中期激烈辩论的干预。这本书揭示了多恩的布道模式如何超越了大教堂条例规定的院长职责，证明了他是一位牧师，具有强烈的讲坛中心虔诚，积极推动了伦敦的布道规定。该研究项目将为每次布道提供完整的评论，首次记录所有多恩的来源，解释困难的词汇和习语，解释当代事件和人物的典故，并翻译古代语言（拉丁语，希腊语，希伯来语）的引文。这个家伙在第12卷的工作中已经发现了多恩的圣保罗布道中大量未被承认的来源；该项目将扩展这项工作，以展示多恩利用材料来构建自己对圣经段落的解读的复杂方式。在第13卷的讲道中，有六篇在他死后出版的原稿（1640年）中没有注明日期，其中五篇没有注明出处。根据大量的内部证据，并与同一时期在圣保罗教堂布道的其他布道进行比较，该项目将确定它们的年代为1626年至167年。因此，它丰富了我们对这些年来多恩的活动的了解，并促进了对近代早期大教堂的研究。该项目的相关领导活动将以该研究员编辑两卷多恩布道的经验为基础，以发展对学术编辑过程的共同反思和提高认识。一系列的音频采访将被记录下来，采访对象是目前从事一系列早期现代学术编辑项目的学者，以及负责监督主要早期现代版本的牛津大学文学高级委托编辑。这些访谈将在一个免费的在线资源上提供，该资源记录了学术编辑的技术、过程和挑战。这个资源是特别设计的，以激励和帮助早期的职业研究人员从事编辑工作，并将讨论这个活动如何适应一个人的学术生涯和编辑必须发展的技能。作为领导力活动的一部分，这个话题也将成为博士和早期职业培训研讨会的核心。这些访谈将利用大量不同种类的当前和近期的编辑项目，其中许多是由AHRC资助的，为他们和一个网站之间提供一个交叉点，以探索想法，同时鼓励新的协作编辑工作。

This project will produce a critical edition of thirteen sermons by the poet and preacher John Donne (1572-1631) as Dean of St Paul's Cathedral in 1626-7, a fertile and highly politically charged period in his career. This will be published as Vol. 13 of The Oxford Edition of the Sermons of John Donne (16 vols, general ed. Peter McCullough, 2013- ); Vol. 12, on 1626 at St Paul's, has been edited by the fellow. This landmark edition presents all of Donne's sermons in original spelling and for the first time provides full annotations on the texts, along with extensive textual apparatus and full collation of manuscript and print sources. The defining characteristic of the edition is its organisation by place of preaching. This marks a major change from the previous edition by George R. Potter and Evelyn M. Simpson (1953-62), in which sermons are ordered chronologically and without annotation. The new edition allows the reader to observe how Donne's rhetoric is geared towards his different congregations and reveals the continuities between sermons preached at the same venue. The sermons in Vol. 13 illuminate the vital role that sermons played in public discourse during the seventeenth century: religious conformity, the political threat posed by foreign Catholics and native non-conformists, and the English church's self definition are all major preoccupations in Donne's cathedral preaching during this period, and show his intervention in heated debates of the mid-1620s. The volume reveals how far Donne's pattern of preaching went beyond the dean's duty as stipulated by cathedral ordinances, demonstrating him to be a clergyman with a strongly pulpit-centred piety who actively advanced sermon provision in London. The research project will provide a full commentary on each sermon, for the first time documenting all of Donne's sources, glossing difficult vocabulary and idioms, explaining allusions to contemporary events and person, and translating quotations from the ancient languages (Latin, Greek, Hebrew). The fellow's work on Vol. 12 has already uncovered a large number of unacknowledged sources in Donne's St Paul's sermons; the project will extend this work to demonstrate the often-complex ways in which Donne drew on material to frame his own readings of Biblical passages. Six of the sermons in Vol. 13 are undated in their original, posthumous publication (1640), and five of them unplaced. This project will date them with confidence to the years 1626-7, based on a wealth of internal evidence and comparisons with other sermons preached at St Paul's at the same period. It thus enriches our picture of Donne's activities during these years and advances scholarship on the cathedral in the early modern period.The project's associated leadership activities will build on the fellow's experience of editing two volumes of Donne's sermons in order to develop shared reflection on, and heighten awareness of, the process of scholarly editing. A series of audio interviews will be recorded with academics currently engaged in a range of early modern scholarly editing projects, and with the senior commissioning editor for literature at Oxford UP who oversees major early modern editions. These interviews will be available on a free online resource that documents the techniques, processes and challenges of scholarly editing. This resource is designed in particular to inspire and assist early careers researchers to pursue editing, and will address the subject of how the activity can fit into one's academic career and the skills that editors must develop. This topic will also be central to the PhD and early careers training workshop run as part of the leadership activity. The interviews will draw on the large number and diverse range of current and recent editorial projects under contract, many of them funded by the AHRC, providing a point of intersection between them and a site to explore ideas, while encouraging new collaborative editorial work.
