- Scope & content
- The CEECT book series consists of the eleven books published by the project and material pertaining to their publication. This series includes twelve sub-series: research (1982-1995); The History of Emily Montague [rpt. 1985] (ca. 1984-1985); Canadian Crusoes, A Tale of the Rice Lake Plains [rpt. 1986] (ca. 1986); A Strange Manuscript found in a Copper Cylinder [rpt. 1986] (ca. 1986); Wacousta or, The Prophecy: A Tale of the Canadas [rpt. 1987] (ca. 1987-1988); Roughing it in the Bush or Life in Canada [rpt. 1988] (ca. 1988); Antoinette de Mirecourt or Secret Marrying and Secret Sorrowing [rpt. 1989] (ca. 1989); The Mephibosheth Stepsure Letters [rpt. 1990] (ca. 1990); St. Ursula's Convent or the Nun of Canada [rpt. 1991] (ca. 1991); Canadian Brothers or the Prophecy Fulfilled [rpt. 1992] (ca. 1990-1992); The Clockmaker, Series One, Two and Three [rpt. 1995] (ca. 1995); The Backwoods of Canada [rpt. 1997] (ca. 1989-1997). CEECT intended to publish twelve books of early Canadian English prose by ten different authors, half men and half women. Each book required primary and secondary research and had to be collated in order for the editor to restore the text to its original form. Collation is the comparison of several copies of apparently the same edition and typesetting of a text (horizontal collation) and the comparison of different editions and typesetting of a text (vertical collation). CEECT used various methods of collation including oral, visual, textual, and computer-based. The collation process was assisted by the creation of several specialized CP-6 computer programs.
