Our editorial method is informed by social-text editing principles. By text we mean verbal and visual printed material, including non-referential physical elements such as bindings, page layouts, and ornaments. We view any text as the outcome of collaborative processes that have specific manifestations at precise historical moments. The Yellow Nineties Online publishes facsimile editions of a select collection of fin-de- sicle aesthetic periodicals, together with paratexts of production and reception such as cover designs, advertising materials, and reviews. This historical material is enhanced by two kinds of peer-reviewed scholarly commentary: biographies of the periodicals contributors and associates; and critical introductions to each title and volume by experts in the field. All scholarly material on the site is vetted by the editor(s) and peer- reviewed by them and/or an international board of advisors. The site as a whole is peer- reviewed by NINES (Networked Infrastructure for Nineteenth-Century Electronic Scholarship). Contributors to the site retain personal copyright in their material. The site is licensed with a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 license. Both primary and secondary materials, including all visual images, are marked up in TEI- (Textual-Encoding Initiative) compliant XML (Extensible Markup Language). To ensure maximum flexibility for users, magazines are available on the site as virtual objects (facsimiles) in FlipBook form; in HTML for online reading; in PDF for downloading and collecting; and in XML for those who wish to review and/or adapt our tag sets. In order to make ornamental devices, such as initial letters, head- and tail- pieces, searchable, we have developed a Database of Ornament in OMEKA, and linked it to the relevant pages of each magazine edition. As a dynamic structure, a scholarly website is always in process; Phase One of The Yellow Nineties Online (2010-2015) is completed and Phase Two (2016-2021) is underway.

14 MONNA ROSA
Elle est seule au boudoir En bandeaux d’or liquide, En robe d’or fluide Sur fond blanc dans le soir Teinté d’or vert et noir. Un pot bleu japonise Délicieusement Dont s’élance gaiment Dans l'atmosphère exquise Oû l'âme s’adonise Un flot mélodieux Selon le rhythme juste— De roses, chœur auguste, Bouquet insidieux Au conseil radieux! Elle, belle comme elles, Les roses, n'élit plus Dans ses cheveux élus Qu’une de ces fleurs belles Comme elle, et de ciseaux Prestes, tels des oiseaux, La coupe ou, mieux, la cueille Avec le soin charmant D’y laisser joliment La grâce d’une feuille Verte comme le soir Noir et or du boudoir. Cependant 19 Cependant que persiste La splendeur, à côté, Du plumage bleuté De l'orgueil, qui s’attriste, D’un paon jadis vainqueur Aux jardins de ce cœur.
