Journalism
The Cather Journalism Project is a major endeavor to edit, for the first time, the complete journalistic writings of Willa Cather. To accomplish this, we are collecting high-quality page images of the original publication, transcribing Cather's work, encoding a transcription of the text in Text Encoding Initiative (TEI)-conformant Extensible Markup Language (XML), thoroughly annotating each article, and publishing the texts here on the Cather Archive. Below is our initial installment, complete with notes, page images, and cross-article XML searching.
We have presented the texts as they appeared in their first publication and have not "corrected" the texts or regularized them in any way. The typographical errors, mispellings, and inaccuracies in the texts below, though accounted for in the XML markup, are consistent with the original. In providing a transcription that matches the original, we hope to give readers some sense of the roughness and immediacy that results from the rapid writing and typesetting of late nineteenth-century journalism.
We have included all portions of the columns that were not explicitly signed by another author. In some cases, it is possible that the texts were not authored by Cather but were compiled from press releases and advance notices.
We have also made available a Bibliography of Cather's Journalistic Writings, based upon Joan Crane's book, Willa Cather: A Bibliography, published by the University of Nebraska Press in 1982.
