I'm in early stages of preparing an online edition of Emily Dickinson's Fascicles. (The Fascicles were the little booklets in which Dickinson bound much of her verse).

I wonder how you would prefer to see such a document. Here are the problems.

• Her nonstandard punctuation changes the meaning of her text.
• Even her handwriting is critical in these changes
• Her handwriting is very hard for most people to read.
• People have tried to transcribe the handwriting in such a way that the visual qualities of the punctuation are preserved. No one has come close.
