612. Recovery from the Margins: An Electronic Roundtable

5:15 PM–6:30 PM Jan 11, 2020 (US - Pacific)

WSCC - Chelan 2

Session Information

Description: Hampered by a canon that privileges particular genres over “messy” texts, by scholarly rationales and digital encoding predicated on a model of single-author agency and the existence of multiple versions of a single text, and by granting agencies that favor large-scale initiatives, the recovery of texts by women and people of color has suffered setbacks. Panelists explore the ways in which scholarly editions can avoid replicating colonization and marginalization.
