Kritische Gesamtausgabe, Berlin\/New York, de Gruyter, 1967\u2013 and Nietzsche Briefwechsel. Kritische Gesamtausgabe, Berlin\/New York, de Gruyter, 1975\u2013). The eKGWB is edited by Paolo D\u2019Iorio and published by Nietzsche Source.<\/p>\n<p>The digitized text of the eKGWB was proofread against the printed edition.

These corrections are highlighted in the eKGWB, with linked citations that provide the uncorrected text of the print version.<\/p>\n<p>The eKGWB interface allows readers to consult, cite, and copy the text; to search the entire corpus or delimited parts of it; and to generate lists of search results with or without the surrounding text.

The edition uses a classification system that provides each work, chapter, aphorism or fragment a unique and stable internet address. To facilitate cross-referencing between paper and digital editions, the sigla used in the URL for the eKGWB correspond to the standard abbreviations established by the Colli\/Montinari print edition.\u00a0For example, the first section of <em>The Antichrist<\/em>\u00a0can be reached at the following address: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nietzschesource.org\/eKGWB\/AC-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.nietzschesource.org\/eKGWB\/AC-1<\/a>.\u00a0By using stable URLs with conventional sigla for both published works and unpublished material, the eKGWB is a reliable and citable source for academic research.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Digitale Kritische Gesamtausgabe Werke und Briefe (eKGWB)\u00a0is the digital version of the German reference edition of Nietzsche\u2019s works, posthumous fragments, and correspondence edited by Giorgio Colli and Mazzino Montinari (Friedrich Nietzsche, Werke.
