- Description
- Questions the precision of transcribing manuscripts in electronic editing as undertaken for The "Canterbury Tales" Project and the Middle English Grammar Project. Uses examples from MLT to demonstrate that even graphetic transcription does not represent manuscript details precisely, especially in the cases of abbreviations and word-end flourishes.
