Dear colleagues,
to test how the Open Science Framework (<http://osf.io>) works, we have
recreated one of our digital experiments in comparative Latin poetry: a
large-scale search for incipits and clausulae from Ovid's Heroides,
Tristia, and Ex Ponto in the poetic epistles of Croatian Latin author
Paulus Ritter Vitezovic (1652-1713).
We used XQuery and BaseX XML database.
For Ovid's epistles, we relied on the PerseusDL Primary Source Latin Texts
editions, pulling them into our databases directly from the PerseusDL
Github repository.
The project can be accessed (and forked) at <http://osf.io/ek6pt/>.
We would appreciate any feedback and discussion. E. g. are the
instructions for replication clear enough? did anybody succeed to actually
replicate what we did? is the Open Science Framework interface
understandable? do you think that replication matters in digital classical
studies?
Best,
