Digital Classicist London & Institute of Classical Studies Seminar 2014 Friday June 27 at 16:30 in room G37, Senate House, Malet Street, London, WC1E 7HU
Monica Berti, Greta Franzini & Simona Stoyanova (Leipzig) The Leipzig Open Fragmentary Texts Series and Digital Fragmenta Historicorum Graecorum Projects
ALL WELCOME
The Leipzig Open Fragmentary Texts Series (LOFTS) is a new collaborative project that seeks to create open electronic editions of ancient works that survive only through quotations and text re-uses in later texts. The large diversity and dispersion of these materials entreats a dynamic infrastructure which fully supports and represents the relationships between sources, citations and annotations. LOFTS links fragments to the source text from which they are drawn, and aligns them to multiple editions and translations, thus providing an enhanced understanding of the fragmentary textual heritage it showcases.
The seminar will be followed by wine and refreshments. For more information see the seminar website at http://www.digitalclassicist.org/wip/wip2014.html
