This essay introduces the Bannatyne Manuscript as an historical and literary artefact and describes the process through which it is being digitized. The importance of this project lies in its goal of making this important manuscript more easily accessible. In addition to discussing the method behind the manuscript’s digitization, it also examines issues related to the creation of digital editions more broadly while examining the editorial process behind the manuscript’s creation by George Bannatyne.
