Subject: Analytical Onomasticon project on the Web
This is to announce
Who's Who in the Metamorphoses of Ovid:
The Analytical Onomasticon Project
at the URL http://www.epas.utoronto.ca/~mccarty/wlm/Onomasticon/, which
describes research in progress toward a comprehensive reference work, in
print and electronic form, to persons and places in Ovid's Met. (Those
who know Ovid will understand how problematic the idea of a "person"
is in his poem, and so, I hope, will be particularly interested to find
out how they can be computerized.)
The Web document includes an overview of the Project, brief discussion of its
literary critical basis, explanation of the approach it takes, summary
of the tagging scheme for the electronic text, sample indexes, and a
simulation of an electronic-book version of the Onomasticon using Netscape
"frames".
By putting this Web document online, I hope to engage the attention of
future readers at a time when substantial changes can be made without
seriously impeding the completion of the book. Comments, criticisms, and
suggestions are most eagerly sought.
Some parts of the online document, esp. the sample indexes and the
CD-simulation, may be quite difficult to receive during peak hours,
especially from distant locations. I will be interested to hear of your
experiences and apologize in advance for the inconvenience.
