“Strange Event in the Life of Schalken the Painter.” By Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu. Dublin University Magazine 13 (May 1839): 579-91.

This page contains the raw historical collation of our three source texts produced by the collation software Juxta. As detailed in our “Note on the Text,” we have signficantly edited this Juxta apparatus to compensate for some of its redundancies, but we believed readers should have access to it as the starting point for our collation and textual annotations for this edition. We should note that this collation was produced using the legacy Javascript-run version of Juxta rather than the web-based version offered on Juxta Commons.

This document details the protocols we used to transcribe our three source texts into Microsoft Word and to format the resulting Word files so that they would be maximally compatible with the procedures of critical editing and with the collation software Juxta that we used. Aside from stipulating uniform formats for font, paragraphing, and such, these protocols minimize the ways that the various default and automatic settings in Word may interfere with accurate transcription of source texts.

Schalken the Painter.
