McGann (born 1937) is an American literary scholar, textual critic, and one of the foundational figures in the digital humanities. He served as the John Stewart Bryan University Professor at the University of Virginia and has published extensively on Romantic literature, textual theory, and editorial practice. He has edited and authored major contributions to Rossetti studies. McGann's scholarship, especially on Lord Byron and Dante Gabriel Rossetti, has helped redefine the relationship between literary criticism and material textuality.","In 1993, McGann launched The Rossetti Archive, one of the first major digital humanities projects, which aimed at collecting and encoding the complete poetic, artistic, and contextual works of the 19th-century English poet and painter Dante Gabriel Rossetti. The project combined scholarly editing with digital technology to create an online research archive that provided innovative access to Rossetti's texts and images. Completed in 2008, the Archive later became a key part of the Networked Infrastructure for Nineteenth-century Electronic Scholarship (NINES), a pioneering effort to bring scholarly coherence to digital resources related to nineteenth-century studies, which McGann also helped conceptualize.","The Rossetti Archive was hosted and developed through, and is sponsored by the Institute for Advanced Technology in the Humanities (IATH) at the University of Virginia. Founded in 1992, IATH is a research center dedicated to exploring and developing digital tools and procedures for humanities scholarships. It provides scholars with technical, editorial, and design support to develop long-term digital research projects that push the boundaries of scholarly communication. Under IATH's sponsorship, the Rossetti Archive benefited from interdisciplinary collaboration between scholars, developers, and digital librarians.","McGann's project involved a number of key collaborators, including Maura M. Tarnoff, Craig Warren, Cory Korkow, Bethany Nowviskie, William J. Hughes, and Melissa White. Programmer/analysts such as Robbie Bingler and Stephen Ramsay provided the technical backbone, while consultants like Daniel Pitti and John Unsworth offered critical infrastructure support.

The Rossetti Archive was an important early digital humanities project that began in 1993 and was completed in 2008. This project sought to bring together the pictorial, textual, and also contextual writing from the period of the nineteenth-century English poet and artist, Dante Gabriel Rossetti.","This addition to the Jerome McGann Papers (circa 1993–2008), the first series in the finding aid, includes written and digital formats that document the preparation, creation, and development of one of the foundational projects in the digital humanities. Initiated by University of Virginia professor Jerome McGann, in collaboration with colleagues, the Rossetti Archive sought to integrate the pictorial, textual, and contextual works of nineteenth-century English poet and artist Dante Gabriel Rossetti. The addition includes a variety of printed and handwritten correspondence, research notes, samples of duplications (scans or photocopies) of Rossetti's works, photographic prints, and documentation of the planning and technical aspects of the project. These materials are organized into three subseries: materials relating the McGann's research on Dante Rossetti, materials documenting the creation and maintenance of the Rossetti Archive website, and other materials.","The first subseries includes mainly correspondence and research notes, but also scans, printouts, catalogs, and materials related to copyright and use permissions. The correspondence includes those between McGann and various repositories with Dante Rossetti related holdings, as well as, with individuals that have knowledge of, access to, or are inquiring about Rossetti materials. Many of these letters are accompanied by scans of documents annotated with research notes, notes on loose leaves of paper, photographic prints, and slide samples of Rossetti works. There are also digitized materials and born-digital files documenting McGann's research for the project. Much of these correspondences document McGann's work in preparing to create the archive.","The second subseries includes many of the schematics and plans for developing the Rossetti Archive, such as printed xml files, paper scans of Rossetti works labeled with file names, and inventories of digital scans of Rossetti works compiled by McGann. These are accompanied by correspondence between McGann and his collaborators in constructing the digital Archive, in which they discuss the technical aspects of creating the website and organizing the Archive's content. There are also born-digital files in the collection that document the work of creating the Rossetti Archive. Also included in this subseries are correspondence from individuals inquiring about the Archive, and photographic prints.","The third subseries includes materials unrelated to Rossetti and the Archive. These include mainly photographic materials.","This collection contains some in-copyright material.

McGann (born 1937) is an American literary scholar, textual critic, and one of the foundational figures in the digital humanities. He served as the John Stewart Bryan University Professor at the University of Virginia and has published extensively on Romantic literature, textual theory, and editorial practice. He has edited and authored major contributions to Rossetti studies. McGann's scholarship, especially on Lord Byron and Dante Gabriel Rossetti, has helped redefine the relationship between literary criticism and material textuality.","In 1993, McGann launched The Rossetti Archive, one of the first major digital humanities projects, which aimed at collecting and encoding the complete poetic, artistic, and contextual works of the 19th-century English poet and painter Dante Gabriel Rossetti. The project combined scholarly editing with digital technology to create an online research archive that provided innovative access to Rossetti's texts and images. Completed in 2008, the Archive later became a key part of the Networked Infrastructure for Nineteenth-century Electronic Scholarship (NINES), a pioneering effort to bring scholarly coherence to digital resources related to nineteenth-century studies, which McGann also helped conceptualize.","The Rossetti Archive was hosted and developed through, and is sponsored by the Institute for Advanced Technology in the Humanities (IATH) at the University of Virginia. Founded in 1992, IATH is a research center dedicated to exploring and developing digital tools and procedures for humanities scholarships. It provides scholars with technical, editorial, and design support to develop long-term digital research projects that push the boundaries of scholarly communication. Under IATH's sponsorship, the Rossetti Archive benefited from interdisciplinary collaboration between scholars, developers, and digital librarians.","McGann's project involved a number of key collaborators, including Maura M. Tarnoff, Craig Warren, Cory Korkow, Bethany Nowviskie, William J. Hughes, and Melissa White. Programmer/analysts such as Robbie Bingler and Stephen Ramsay provided the technical backbone, while consultants like Daniel Pitti and John Unsworth offered critical infrastructure support. Their collective work ensured the Rossetti Archive met both rigorous scholarly standards and emerging digital accessibility goals.","Reference list:","IATH (Institute for Advanced Technology in the Humanities).
