book:logic
The book:logic initiative brings together scholars interested in the various dimensions of textual studies, particularly editorial methods and editorial theory. The group is an informal one but meets every year normally on a one-day basis and without registration fees thus allowing postgraduate students to attend. Until 2014 the book:logic initiative was organised by Paul Eggert. From 2015 Prof. Ros Smith at the University of Newcastle, together with Dr Mark Byron at the University of Sydney and Prof. Tim Dolin at Curtin University, take over the reins. To get on the mailing list contact Ros.Smith@newcastle.edu.au. The first six meetings are listed below. Some have sound-recorded the proceedings. These and any other materials are linked.
