Authored by editors and annotators of current standard editions-such as California's Works of John Dryden, the Florida Edition of the Works of Laurence Sterne, and the Yale Edition of the Works of Samuel Johnson-this book explores theoretical perspectives on critical editing and the practical work of annotation. Through examples from their own editorial work, the contributors illuminate the personal dilemmas and decisions confronting the annotator of texts: What information in the text needs annotation? When does one stop annotating? How does one manage the annotation-versus-interpretation problem?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrimming with erudition, Notes on Footnotes showcases the precision and attentiveness of some of the world's foremost editors and annotators.
