A Berichtigungsliste of Demotic Documents

There seems to be no brief English equivalent for the concept of a Berichtigungsliste. This demotic Berichtigungsliste collects and critically presents corrections and supplements to editions of demotic documentary texts: papyri, ostraka, inscriptions, mummy labels, graffiti - everything demotic that was not clearly written as a secular or religious literary composition. The editors have added all the information they have found concerning inventory numbers and photographs as well as republications of the texts in question that the scholar working with the texts will find useful. Although the Berichtigungsliste chiefly concerns text editions, be they published in monographs or articles, texts that have been published only in photography or facsimile are also included. The period covered for the publications that have been ransacked for the purpose of the Berichtigungsliste is roughly the Twentieth Century: 1900-2000. In subsequent volumes, the editors intend to extend the time-range into the Nineteenth Century as well as into the future.
