Textsegmentierung in Handschrift und Frühdruck
-
Abstract
In the 15th and early 16th centuries, punctuation was one of several components of text segmentation, carried out by the different craftsmen involved. Drawing on two case studies from the period of early printing (1430-1530), this article explores the operatingmethods of those contributors (scribes, typesetters, rubricators) at different stages of their work (first processing, secondary editing, transposition of a text). Common feature is the loose connection between form and content: the protagonists did not adhere to the text template, but edited the texts according to individual, idioscriptal concepts, using awide range of variants. Punctuationwas not independent of other segmentation units; it rather interacted with them, e. g.with the caesura at the end of the line. In addition to these similarities, our investigation has revealed differences in the waymanuscripts and prints were processed. This becomes clear, for example, in the secondary editing done by rubricators: the uniform letter forms in prints brought about a more superficial way of rubrication.
