Sarah Neville, "The textual imagination in The Second Part of King Henry the Sixth"
Critical editing relies on the imagined historical relations between imagined material forms, and the role of the editor is to bring these carefully articulated and materially demonstrable imaginings into being in the construction of the new, information-rich scholarly artifact known as a critical edition. As a textual theorist, scholarly editor, and theatre artist, Sarah Neville's work investigates how modern conceptions of authority manifest in the printed artifacts of the past.
