Hans Walter Gabler – författare

Over the past decade, Anglo-American notions of textual construction and editorial theory have begun major paradigm shifts. Many of the key emergent issues of Anglo-American debate -- such as theories of versions - -are already familiar in German theory. In other respects, including systematic reflection on the design and function of editorial apparatus, the German debate has already produced paradigms and procedures as yet unformulated in English. Contemporary German Editorial Theory makes available for the first time in English ten major essays by seven German theorists, together with an original introductory meditation by Hans Walter Gabler, editor of the celebrated edition of James Joyce's Ulysses. The volume thus participates in the paradigm shift in editorial theory that has led both to theoretical reconception of the field and to groundbreaking practical results. Topics discussed include the distinction between historical record and editor's interpretation, the display of multiple versions, concepts of authorization and intention, and the relations of textual theory to approaches like deconstruction and semiotics. The book also includes suggestions for further reading in both languages and a glossary of technical terms. Bringing together the heretofore separate Anglo-American and German approaches will strengthen each separately and prepare the way for a new hybrid combining the advantages of both orientations. Contributors are Hans Zeller, Miroslav Červenka, Elisabeth Höpker-Herberg, Gunter Martens, Henning Boetius, Siegfried Scheibe, and Gerhard Seidel.
