Abstract

This article wish to make a case for scholarly digital editions (SDE’s). SDE’s can help to put the computational humanities into the center of humanistic scholarship. Large scaled projects pave the way for easy access to historical documents, but small, curated digital editions, strenuously enriched by philologists, will be the key player in the process of integrating computational humanities into traditional scholarship; first and foremost because this material is clean, reliable, and flexible, secondly, thorough markup leaves it open to comprehensive, fine-grained, hermeneutically complex explorations.
