Early digital editions were for the most part self‐consciously tentative and experimental. They were published as initial offerings in what were seen as many year multi‐year projects or as experiments in the application of digital media to textual problems. Cædmon’s Hymn: A Multimedia Study, Edition, and Archive was designed to test how digital editions might function as complete, standalone scholarly works. The edition focused on a small text that, although complicated, could nevertheless be digitized quickly, and it engaged in a number of experiments with form. One of the more important conclusions was that print and ‘digital’ are not nearly as oppositional as some popular discussions imply. In this edition, print and screen are used to complement each other by providing the user with different types of information based on the various strengths of the media. This article is part of a Literature Compass special issue on ‘Scholarly Editing in the Twenty‐First Century’. The special issue is made up of the following pieces: ‘Special Issue: “Scholarly Editing in the Twenty‐First Century”– Preface’, Regenia Gagnier, Literature Compass 7.2 (2010): 33–34, doi: 10.1111/j.1741‐4113.2009.00672.x . ‘Special Issue: “Scholarly Editing in the Twenty‐First Century”– Introduction’, Arthur F.
