		Marginalia is the general term for notes, scribbles, doodles and editorial comments made in the margin of a book.

		She believes, for example, that both exempla and marginalia was intended primarily to amuse, and in doing so to lead the listener's or reader's attention to the meaningful text.
		Randall restates her argument that many marginal images can be traced back to specific proverbs, exempla, or fabliaux, a tradition of often mocking moralizing stories drawn from burlesques, pieces of epics, or what Randall calls "observations of daily life."[29] She states that these sources were secular, yet worthy of respect because of their moral tone.

		She brings to life, insofar as it is possible, the war between marginalia's practitioners and prohibitionists, the "annotators" vs. the "bibliophiles" ("anarchists," as Jackson neatly puts it, vs. "bores"): Wordsworth, for example, enraged his friend De Quincey by cutting open the pages of a new book with a butter-smeared knife.
		Marginalia, which generally refers to handwritten or printed text located in the margins of a page, have been around practically as long as there have been margins to write in.
		She has nice coverage of different types of marginalia and speculates on some of the reasons that people write marginalia which are nicely done, but she includes discussions and digressions on book alterations that she even admits are technically not marginalia.

		In his introduction to this edition of Coleridge's "Marginalia," the late George Whalley wrote, "There is no body of marginalia--in English, or perhaps in any other language--comparable with Coleridge's in range and variety and in the sensitiveness, scope, and depth of his reaction to what he was reading.''

	Marginalia V by James C. Mckusick (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		As Whalley pointed out in his magisterial introduction to the first volume, Coleridge's marginalia are unparalleled by those of any other writer in their range, scope, and depth of response to an incredible variety of subject matter.
		Coleridge particularly admires Taylor's penchant for digressions, reflections, and interjections: 'these are the costly gems which glitter, loosely set, on the Chain Armour of his polemic Pegasus.' Coleridge is considerably less sympathetic in his response to the writings of Emanuel Swedenborg.
		Coleridge's marginalia on Tennemann reveal that he did not make uncritical use of this source material; he is extremely critical of Tennemann's Kantian bias, and his marginalia provide a prolific trove of retorts, rejoinders, rebuttals, and free-associative digressions in classic Coleridgean style.

	HubLog: Peer Review with Marginalia
		Marginalia is really well made: it's all Javascript and PHP, with MySQL storage and all the communication done using Atom (which means you get an Atom feed of recent annotations for free).
		There is, however, no facility for viewing the annotations of multiple users at the same time; the Moodle version provides a summary page (with search and filter criteria) for this purpose.
		The reason you're not seeing any of this here is that Marginalia isn't really a stand-alone application (it's intended to be integrated into another app), so the demo doesn't provide any log-in facilities.

	Marginalia IV. Edited by H.J. Jackson and George Whalley Volume 12 of Collected Works of Samuel Taylor Coleridge by ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The fourth volume of Coleridge's Marginalia collects his notes in over one hundred books in alphabetical order, `Pamphlets to Shakespeare,' along with generous quotations from the works Coleridge annotates and the editors' notes and interpolations, which reflect an astonishing range of learning and scholarship.
		Many of the Shakespeare annotations were written in preparation for his lectures of 1818-19 and thus have a public purpose and audience not usually associated with the private genre of marginal annotation.
		Thus while Coleridge's marginalia sometimes appear as fragments of private conversation, or argument, with the author, at others they appear in the form of public letters to the owner of the book, to the person for whom Coleridge writes the notes, or to a number of auditors - a public audience.

		In some cases, people were writing to themselves, recording their ongoing dialogue with the author as an aid to memory, as an emotional release, or for diaristic purposes, to mark one's response to a given work at a given time in order to reflect upon it at a later time.
		A central figure in Jackson's argument is, of course, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, possibly the first major author to practice marginalia as a profession.
