Hofmeister, Wernfried and Andrea Hofmeister-Winter, eds., 2009. Wege zum Text. Überlegungen zur Verfügbarkeit mediävistischer Editionen im 21. Jahrhundert. Grazer Kolloquium 17.-19. September 2008. Beihefte zu editio, Band 30. Tübingen: Niemeyer. 247 pages.

Abstract

In September 2008, a colloquium was held in Graz to discuss future-oriented creation, distribution, and storage of editions of medieval texts. The volume reviewed here, Wege zum Text. Überlegungen zur Verfügbarkeit mediävistischer Editionen, is the product of this colloquium and consists of 19 articles, 16 of which are also accessible as podcasts on the colloquium's homepage (<http://www.uni-graz.at/wernfried.hofmeister/wegezumtext/>). For many, the option to listen to the talks as well as read the papers might not be more than a nifty extra. However, the site shines by providing access to many of the documents that were given out at the colloquium and by linking to some of the projects' homepages. With the exception of the podcast of the medieval buffet held at the 2008 colloquium, the podcasts work flawlessly.
