Grant Description: Scholarly Editions Grants support the preparation by a team of at least two editors and staff of texts and documents that are currently inaccessible or available in inadequate editions. Projects involving significant literary, philosophical, and historical materials are typical in this grant program, but other types of work, such as musical notation, are also eligible. Applicants should demonstrate familiarity with the best practices recommended by the Association for Documentary Editing or the Modern Language Association Committee on Scholarly Editions. Editions produced with NEH support contain scholarly and critical apparatus appropriate to the subject matter and format of the edition. This usually means introductions and annotations that provide essential information about the form, transmission, and historical and intellectual context of the texts and documents involved. Proposals for editions of foreign language materials in the original language are eligible for funding, but proposals for editions of translated materials should be submitted to the Collaborative Research program. In keeping with the goals of the NEH Digital Humanities Initiative, the Scholarly Editions Program requires that applicants for online projects employ digital technology in the preparation and management of their critical and documentary editions. Online projects that include TEI (Text Encoding Initiative) conformant transcription and offer free access are encouraged and will be given preference over other online projects.
