This collection of original essays brings international and multidisciplinary perspectives to the problem of how to understand and practice editorial mediation: How does editing alter what it seeks to represent? How does it condition the relationship between texts and readers? The different concerns shared by editors of a variety of genres, literary and otherwise, emerge here as constructive new approaches to the theory and practice of editing are explored. The essays make a concerted attempt to assess the implications of postmodern thought on one of the oldest and most fundamental cultural activities, editing The section on theory covers such important subjects as editorial responsibility, the death of the author, and the nature of the authorial voice. The practice section covers actual editing situations in various literary areas and in musicology, recorded music, and the preservation of oral literature. The multidisciplinary volume will find its readers among students of textual criticism, literature, music, and folklore as well as any readers of postmodern criticism.

Excerpt from The Lives of the Right Hon. Francis North, Baron Guilford; The Hon. Sir Dudley North; And the Hon. And Rev. Dr. John North, Vol. 3 of 3 The onely felicity, which came at my nativity attended me to this hour and will to that of my last breath, and after all leav a perfume in a reasonable good Name at parting, is that of being descended from Religious, ver tuous, wise, and sound parents. That they were so is granted by all that knew them, and that I am happy from their vertues I know and can affirme. And if I should goe about to trace up all the stepps by which I perceiv it, I must make a journall of my life, but that is too much at this time of the day. I lay it downe for a truth, Quasi Evangelicall, that the best legacy parents can leav to their children is good principles and sound bodys. And to prove it shall alledg some few passages of my oune expe rience, who ascribe all the good I know and the many de liverances I have had, next to Almighty Providence, (which for ought I know wrought by such means) to the Caracter of My parents.

Excerpt from The Lives of the Right Hon. Francis North, Baron Guilford; The Hon. Sir Dudley North; And the Hon. And Rev. Dr. John North, Vol. 2 of 3: Together With the Autobiography of the Author The Honourable Sir Dudley North, knight, was the third surviving son of the second Dudley Lord North Baron of Kirtling. The whole family relation was declared in a preface to the account of his best brother the lord keeper; wherefore it is here omitted. He was born 16th of May 1641; and the christian name of Dudley, as I have heard, came into this family by the means of Dudley Earl of Leicester, who was a godfather at the christening of the first Dudley Lord North, his grandfather. Why or how it happened that this name fell to the share of a younger brother, and not of the eldest son whose name was Charles, may be imagined easier than discovered. It is likely that in the reign of King Charles I., when the eldest was born, Charles was thought more honourable. But accident or commonly the parents' or godfathers' fancy determines names; and it may be thought fit that the latter should have something for their money. 2. He was a very forward, lively, and beautiful child, and thereby entitled to be, as he really was, his mother's favourite: for good women are most pleased when their children, being females, are like themselves or as they fancy they were when young; and the males, as the father was in his tender age according to the ideas they form to themselves.
