Un cuarto de siglo con Cartas privadas de emigrantes a Indias. Prácticas y perspectivas de ediciones de cartas transatlánticas en el Imperio español

Abstract

The article takes the 25th anniversary of Enrique Otte's letter edition to revise the praxis of this and later similar efforts. We analyze the archival repositories, establish diffe - Rent types of letters, and take on the various editorial practices. In the last part, editorial standards are proposed and we emphasize the need to embrace practices of digital humanities (TEI) for future editions.
