Subject: Edition of Anne Frank manuscripts now available in English
Dear colleagues,
Some of you might be interested to hear that our TEI-based scholarly edition of
Anne Frank's manuscripts is now also available in English. It includes her
Diary, The Back House (the novel into which she set out to rewrite the diary),
her collection of Tales, the unfinished novel Cady's Life and her Book of
Beautiful Sentences (inspiring fragments that she copied from her reading). The
edition provides extensive historical and textual commentary, context
information and background essays. It can be accessed at
https://annefrankmanuscripts.org/.
Unfortunately, the copyright restrictions are the same as those for the Dutch
edition we announced a few years ago. The edition is not accessible from most
English-speaking countries, from the Netherlands, France and Spain and from
quite a number of other countries. That's also the reason why we cannot publish
the XML files.
If you live in one of the countries where the edition cannot be accessed, you
might still be interested in our article in the DH Benelux Journal, explaining
the thinking behind the edition: https://journal.dhbenelux.org/wp-

We like to hear your comments!
Best wishes,
Peter
