    Questo fascicolo monografico su «Storie di edizioni» avrebbe dovuto essere presentato in un seminario nel maggio del 2020: la diffusione del virus Covid-19 ha reso impossibile l’incontro previsto, nel quale – insieme agli autori dei saggi – avrebbero dovuto intervenire, aprendo i lavori con le loro riflessioni, Giulia Raboni (dell’Università degli Studi di Parma) e Emilio Russo (dell’Università di Roma La Sapienza). Abbiamo pensato di coinvolgere comunque i due studiosi, chiudendo il numero on line e mandandolo in stampa, e di invitarli a una conversazione sulle tante questioni che la storia delle edizioni può portare in primo piano. La conversazione – realizzata grazie alla loro disponibilità – viene qui proposta ad apertura (e a commento) dei saggi dedicati a singole edizioni e alla loro storia.This monographic issue of "Storie di edizioni" was to have been presented at a seminar in May 2020: the spread of the Covid-19 virus made it impossible to hold the planned meeting, in which - together with the authors of the essays - Giulia Raboni (of the University of Parma) and Emilio Russo (of the University of Rome La Sapienza) were to have opened the proceedings with their reflections. We decided to involve the two scholars anyway, closing the online issue and sending it to print, inviting them to a conversation on the many topics that the history of editions can bring to the fore. The conversation - made possible thanks to their willingness - is offered here as an opening (and commentary) to the essays devoted to individual editions and their history

    What is Authorial Philology? (PDF)

    A stark departure from traditional philology, What is Authorial Philology? is the first comprehensive treatment of authorial philology as a discipline in its own right. It provides readers with an excellent introduction to the theory and practice of editing ‘authorial texts’ alongside an exploration of authorial philology in its cultural and conceptual architecture. The originality and distinction of this work lies in its clear systematization of a discipline whose autonomous status has only recently been recognised (at least in Italy), though its roots may extend back as far as Giorgio Pasquali. This pioneering volume offers both a methodical set of instructions on how to read critical editions, and a wide range of practical examples, expanding upon the conceptual and methodological apparatus laid out in the first two chapters. By presenting a thorough account of the historical and theoretical framework through which authorial philology developed, Paola Italia and Giulia Raboni successfully reconceptualize the authorial text as an ever-changing organism, subject to alteration and modification. What is Authorial Philology? will be of great didactic value to students and researchers alike, providing readers with a fuller understanding of the rationale behind different editing practices, and addressing both traditional and newer methods such as the use of the digital medium and its implications. Spanning the whole Italian tradition from Petrarch to Carlo Emilio Gadda, this ground-breaking volume provokes us to consider important questions concerning a text’s dynamism, the extent to which an author is ‘agentive’, and, most crucially, about the very nature of what we read
