Based on the example of an early modern case of self-translation and collaborative translation, the contribution seeks to open discussion about the relation between multilingual practices embodied in textual research objects on the one side and the "user experience" of digital platforms and their affordances on the other.
One of the great desiderata in the field of Classics unfulfilled for centuries has been to trace the reception of the tremendously influential thinker and writer Plato throughout antiquity. The task is not only challenging because of the vast amount of literature (even if we focus on Greek) but has also been impossible to solve with digital approac...
In the humanities, text comparison is essential for scholarly editing the traditions of a text with its different witnesses under study. For the computer-aided creation of a critical apparatus there have been established approaches and tools for many years. However they mainly focus on sub-sentences or sentences. An efficient and easy-to-use automa...
The paper presents an approach to the collation problem of text witnesses which is correct for all distance functions and which is applicable to the alignment of any types of tokens, be it letters, words, sentences, or paragraphs. In contrast to existing approaches which all are heuristics in nature, we specify a formal model in the form of an inte...
In this paper, A shorter version of the paper appeared in German in the final report of the Digital Plato project which was funded by the Volkswagen Foundation from 2016 to 2019. [35], [28].
we present a method for paraphrase extraction in Ancient Greek that can be applied to huge text corpora in interactive humanities applications. Since lexical d...
Word-clouds are a useful tool for providing overviews over texts, visualising relevant words. Multiple word-clouds can also be used to visualise changes over time in a text. This requires that the words in the individual word-clouds have stable positions, as otherwise it is very difficult so see what changed between two consecutive word-clouds. Exi...
In diesem Beitrag wird eine Heuristik zur Paraphrasenextraktion vorgestellt, die auch bei großen Textkorpora in interaktiven Anwendungen eingesetzt werden kann. Es wird gezeigt, wie der in 2015 von Kusner et al. eingeführte Word Mover’s Distance Ansatz zur Dokumentenklassifikation auf die Paraphrasensuche angepasst werden kann, so dass nur für verh...
Das interdisziplinäre Forschungsprojekt Digital Plato untersucht die Rezeption und Nachwirkung des platonischen Werkes in der griechischen Literatur bis in die Spätantike mit einem Fokus auf nicht-wörtlichen Referenzen. Der folgende Beitrag und das dazugehörige Poster geben einen Überblick über die wichtigsten Zwischenergebnisse, die während der zu...
To find receptions of Plato‘s work within the ancient Greek literature, automatic methods would be a useful assistance. Unfortunately, such methods are often knowledge-based and thus restricted to extensively annotated texts, which are not available to a sufficient extent for ancient Greek. In this article, we describe an approach that is based on...
Platons Werke wurden seit ihrer Entstehung bis in die heutige Zeit vielfach rezipiert und direkt zitiert, seine enorme Wirkungsmacht ist kaum zu unterschätzen, wie A.N. Whiteheads (1929, 63) berühmter Ausspruch verdeutlicht: “The safest general characterization of the European philosophical tradition is that it consists of a series of footnotes to...
Neben der Grundfunktionalität zum Vergleich mehrerer Fassungen eines Textes entsprechend getroffener Nutzereinstellungen wurden in die Arbeitsumgebung LERA mit der Suchfunktion, der Übersichts- und Navigationsleiste CATview sowie den interaktiven Wortwolken drei Komponenten zum Analysieren der gefundenen Unterschiede integriert, deren Kombination d...
This paper presents a digital working environment for exploratory analysis of the changes to the text of Raynal’s Histoire philosophique et politique des établissements et du commerce des Europeéns dans les deux Indes, a French text from 1770 about the negative influence of European civilization during the colonization of the East and West Indies w...
In this paper we present an interactive visualization tool, an useful add-on for web-based editions and frameworks for the editing process, to effectively navigate and explore the differences of multiple text variants in a graphical overview. Despite its relative simplicity, our tool named Colored & Aligned Texts view (CATview) has universal applic...
Eine der zentralen Aufgaben bei editionsphilologischen Vorhaben ist die Feststellung der Abhängigkeiten von zu unterschiedlichen Zeitpunkten entstandenen Textzeugnissen. Für die Edition handschriftlicher Textzeugnisse beispielsweise bezieht sich dies auf die editionsphilologisch zentrale Frage des Zusammenhangs unterschiedlicher Handschriften und i...
We introduce an approach for disambiguating end-of-line hyphenated words in French based on the given text
and an external dictionary. Compared to the obvious way to handle hyphenation automatically our approach
has reduced the number of falsely guessed spellings for a tested set of French texts by at least the factor of
1.5. In particular, the app...
