Edition ist die erschließende Wiedergabe historischer Dokumente. This is Patrick Sahle's German -- and, as he claims, untranslatable -- working definition of a scholarly edition. This session will first show, on examples from Greek and Latin literature, what this "erschließende Wiedergabe" came to mean in the medium of print; then we will demonstrate what it may mean in the digital medium. There is a lot of theorizing of digital scholarly editions, but for us the task can be formulated in a simple way: we want to make our knowledge about the text explicit and retrievable. The formulation might be simple, but its realization can be quite demanding -- and also inspiring, as we will show by briefly considering four case studies of digital scholarly editions of Greek and Latin texts.
