Analiza współczesnych edytorskich badań międzynarodowych: Metryka Litewska (1987-2021)
ENThe article presents the latest editorial output on the Lithuanian Metrica. Eighty-six monographic source editions published between 1987 and 2021 were analysed statistically. A compilation of all works was made (appendix), and a quantitative study of the intensity of the work done in terms of time was carried out. The most creative period was 1997–2012, after which there was a marked decline in editorial intensity. An analysis of existing working methods was carried out, creating a network of cooperation between researchers, and the achievements of the most active editors, publishing houses and research centres were also considered. Conclusions summarising 35 years of work indicate signifi cant problems with the adopted publication strategy. The pace of editing overall is slightly more than two books per year, which means that with the current organisational structure and working rules, it is impossible to accomplish the task in real-time. Th erefore, alternative initiatives have been compared to facilitate access to the materials contained in the Polish (Crown) Metrica and the Swedish Metrica. The latter’s editorial areas are dominated by work on summaries and registers, which are linked to the advanced process of digitising the surviving archival materials, allowing for much faster and broader access to the content contained therein. There is also the question of moving towards digital source editions – which, given the time horizon of the work, seems to be the optimal solution.
