Dear Gabby,
if someone is interested in it, I would propose a panel on "digital representations of fragmentary texts": cf. http://www.fragmentarytexts.org
By "fragmentary texts" I mean in particular quotations of lost texts by surviving authors.
I would like to discuss how to represent quotations and collections of fragmentary texts in a digital environment, avoiding the limits of print publications.
At the Perseus Project we are working on this topic and it would be nice to discuss about it also at the APA meeting.
All the best,
Monica Berti
