Digital Classicist London & Institute of Classical Studies Seminar 2014
Friday August 8 at 16:30 in room G37, Senate House, Malet Street,
London, WC1E 7HU
Dominic Oldman & Barry Norton (British Museum)
A new approach to Digital Editions of Ancient Manuscripts using
CIDOC-CRM, FRBRoo and RDFa
The British Museum are producing a digital edition of Malcolm Mosher's
work on the Book of the Dead, within which spells are presented in
aggregated translations according to a number of traditions, presented
alongside representative original vignettes. Papyri and linens that
carry the spells and vignettes are distributed between different
international institutions, but are associated with a much wider body of
material culture that help to provide context for the spells. In our
work the FRBRoo ontology is used to formalise the relationship between
different works and manifestations, and interlinked with object
descriptions in the CIDOC-CRM ontology.
ALL WELCOME
The seminar will be followed by wine and refreshments.
