Donor Establishes Award To Honor Boyd
Donor Establishes Award To Honor Boyd
Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)
The Association for Documentary Editing recently received $500 to establish the Julian P. Boyd Award . This is intended to serve as a memorial to Boyd that will reflect both the breadth of his interests and his concern for excellence. The award will be given every three years to honor a distinguished contribution to knowledge of American history and culture. The donor, who prefers to be anonymous, intends to make further contributions to the award fund but not necessarily to support it single-handedly.

Where We Stand Now And Where We Might Go, Arthur S. Link
Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)
Incomplete though my own knowledge and wisdom are, this is the time, above all others, when we need to take a hard look at ourselves and what we are doing and not doing; that what we need is honest if unpleasant self-scrutiny, not self-congratulation. The love of God is the beginning of wisdom; but we can neither love God nor acquire wisdom until we are honest about ourselves. Let me hasten to say that the following observations about our deficiencies as documentary editors apply exclusively, I think it is fair to say, to those of us who work in materials …

The Editor And Word Processing Equipment, Larry I. Bland
Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)
The nature of the editor's task frequently forces her to acquire greater knowledge of book production than the normal author, who gladly relinquishes technical worries to the publisher's staff. Necessity is frequently the chief motivating factor and osmosis the method in the editor's acquisition of this esoteric knowledge. Not surprisingly, given the financial resources involved, editors in the commercial sector have been quicker to adopt the latest technology to their tasks than have editors in the low-budget, subsidized, money-losing academic sector. The documentary editor, if she or he hopes _somehow to cope with income evaporation and cost inflation, must familiarize …

Mazzei Honored By Italy And U.S.
Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)
The year 1980 marks the two-hundred-fiftieth anniversary of the birth of Philip Mazzei (1730-1816), the forgotten patriot who emigrated to Virginia in 1773 and joined Jefferson, Henry, and other colonial patriots in the growing independence movement. A United States Airmail Stamp commemorating the anniversary will be issued on 13 October, in Washington, D.C. The stamp has the same design as an Italian stamp to be issued at Poggio a Caiano, Italy, Mazzei's birthplace.

Editors' Dialogue: Reading The Continental Congress Men's Mail, Paul H. Smith, Brent Tarter
Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)
For this feature, which is designed to promote that exchange of ideas for which the Association for Documentary Editing exists, the reviewer was instructed to focus his comments on two aspects of the work under examination--one thing done well and one thing that might have been done differently. Admittedly, when the perfect editor produces the perfect edition the flaw in this contrived format shall stand exposed. Yet, even when that perfect edition comes to hand we mortal editors are likely to benefit when one of our number, forced to write about something "that might have been done differently," describes those …
The "Perfect" Text: The Editor Speaks For The Author, David J. Nordloh
The "Perfect" Text: The Editor Speaks For The Author, David J. Nordloh
Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)
I'd like to offer two preliminary comments about the general topic of this session, the "perfect" text, and another about the aspect of that topic which I've been asked to discuss. On the general topic, our presentations may - indeed should - overlap; no aspect of textual scholarship, theoretical or practical, can be sensibly isolated from the others. And second, the placement of "perfect" in quotation marks in the title of the session is an acknowledgment of the virtual impossibility of the task: as editors we are frustrated by a multitude of conditions - I'll be describing a few of …

Documentary Reviewing Reviewed: A Survey Of The Book Review Policies Of Selected Historical Journals, Gregg L. Lint
Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)
Book reviews in many ways are more important for the documentary publication than the monograph. In the latter case the book is published, reviewed, and in a sense forgotten. Multiple volume documentary editions, published over a long period, should receive and, indeed, require constant review, each new volume being compared with the preceding ones. The importance of reviews is no less for smaller selective editions of only a few volumes or on microforms. For the documentary edition, much more a reference book than the monograph, reviews should inform potential users of its utility and help to maintain quality.

Mellon Foundation Makes Large Editing Grant
Mellon Foundation Makes Large Editing Grant
Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)
The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation of New York City has granted $425,000 to the National Historical Publications and Records Commission in support of historical editing projects of five Founding Fathers: John Adams (and his family), Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and George Washington. The grant is intended to give the editors and sponsoring institutions a three-year period in which to develop other bases of financial support, as funds from federal grant-making agencies, such as the NHPRC are not expected to keep pace with rising editorial and production costs. The NHPRC will administer the Mellon Foundation award, making separate annual …

This first convention of our associtation invites observations on the present state of documentary editing. As a branch of learning, documentary editing has come of age, for underlying its practice are principles and values that make it as distinctive a field of inquiry as say quantitative history or literary criticism. That it has matured is due in no small measure to scholars like our president and president-elect, who rank among the pioneers of modern editorial methods. Documentary editing has gained in popularity, as witness the growth of this organization in just its first year of existence or the increasing number …

Editors' Concern With Archivists In Crisis, Lester J. Cappon
Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)
On 2 July 1979 a new administrator of GSA, Admiral Rowland G. Freeman III, took office after a distinguished operational and administrative career in the Navy, including a recent "college presidency" as commandant of the Defense Systems Management College at Fort Belvoir, Virginia. He has assembled the facts of life concerning NARS with the aid of detailed memoranda from the acting archivist, who has unobtrusively injected between the lines some much-needed advice. In pursuing his willful course the administrator does not have to contend with a knowledgeable archivist of the United States, since the position is vacant. Besides, by law …

Comprehensive Text Processing And The Papers Of Henry Laurens, David R. Chesnutt
Comprehensive Text Processing And The Papers Of Henry Laurens, David R. Chesnutt
Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)
The Laurens Papers will publish its last traditional, hot type volume about fifteen months from now. With the publication of volume 9 in February 1981, the project will have completed an almost comprehensive edition of Lauren's papers prior to the Revolution. Yet these nine volumes contain only one-third of the Laurens papers. Another eight thousand· documents remain to be published. The initial publication plan developed in the 1960s called for a series of highly selected volumes to cover the Revolution and later periods. However, the importance of those materials led to a revised publication plan calling for six . printed …

What We Would Have Done Differently Now That It Is Too Late, Louis R. Harlan, Raymond W. Smock
Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)
Without trying to explain away an error that gross, we can only say that it is the kind of error that occurred only once, and occurred in spite of our editorial method rather than because of it. Most of the other outright errors were less egregious: misspelled names; failure to annotate at it appeared in the original, though we doubt that history was changed by the omission of that particular punctuation. We would still continue to correct obvious typographical errors in typewritten or printed documents. Maybe a type does reveal something deeply hidden, but is it deeply hidden in the …
