Prompt
Assess the student's ability to apply principles of textual criticism and stemmatics to establish an authoritative text of a Renaissance play from competing quartos and folios: collate variant readings, identify patterns of scribal and printer error, construct a stemma codicum (noting contamination), choose an appropriate copy-text and editorial method (diplomatic vs. eclectic), propose justified emendations, and present a short apparatus criticus and rationale referencing bibliographical and historical evidence (printing practices, punctuation/orthography, and contextual plausibility).
