W. Speed Hill - New Ways of Looking at Old Texts, Vol. 2: Papers of the Renaissance- English Text Society, 1992-1996

Like its predecessor volume, New Ways of Looking at Old Texts (I): Papers of the Renaissance English Text Society, 1985-1991, the present volume, New Ways . . . II (alternate titles considered were: Newer Ways . . . and New Ways . . . The Sequel), prints papers given at the national MLA conventions from 1992 through 1996. It is a sUmmer volume, as it covers five, not six, years, and it includes no occasional lectures. Nonetheless, the claim made on behalf of the earher volume ("read chronologically (the essays) supply a usefiil proxy for developments in the field . . .") remains vaUd for this collection as well. Although thirteen of the fifteen contributors write as practicing editors and all address editorial issues — or, in one case (Gants), bibUographical issues — the topical range is extensive. Recurrent editorial topoi — choice of copy-text (Pigman, Solopova, Levenson), choice of editorial models (Hill, King, Urkowitz, Lavagnino), historical philology and "old speUing" (Richardson), annotation (Faulkner, King), the role of external fact (Faulkner, Werstine) — reappear, and newer ones — the impact of poststructuraHsm (Levenson, Urkowitz), canon formation (Taylor, Briggs, Paster), the structure of electronic texts (Lavagnino, Urkowitz), the use of computer-based analysis to construct a stemma (Solopova) — make their debuts.
