American Literature The printer's copy manuscript of Dr. Sevier served as the copy-text for an edited edition of the novel. The holograph text was collated with the first printed text which appeared in The Century Illustrated Monthly Magazine, the first edition published by James R. Osgood and subsequent issues of the novel published by Charles Scribner's. Further collations of both surviving manuscript fragments and the David Douglas edition revealed that primary substantive authority is shared by the printer's copy and Century texts. Over 4,000 accidental variants were attributed to compositors of the de Vinne Press. Substantives were located, authority was assigned and the results listed in a textual apparatus. Multiple word-division lists were compiled, as were lists of spellmg preferences. Compositorial stints, locations and total production were identified and used to isolate categories of variants. Most accidentals in the copy-text were treated categorically on the basis of compositorial practice. 1973 English text Bowling Green State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=bgsu155593125043378 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=bgsu155593125043378 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
