Popis | Massive digitization of medieval manuscripts in the last decades leads us not only to very high accessibility of the historical documents themselves, but also their "tags" and structure in the form of metadata. The use of metadata, especially provided in the format of XML TEI, could open up new paths of research in medieval studies. One of the tools to understand written textual heritage is network analysis used atop of expanded digital catalogues by processing their metadata. We could ask vast sets of questions concerning our data when we have fine-grained TEI metadata. Beginning from basic codicological views to complex historical analysis of authors comprehended as “compagnons of voyage” and their texts. As a demonstrative case, I will explore the metadata of manuscripts from Manuscriptorum.com, more specifically corpus of Hussite reform collection. On this metadata I could demonstrate complex relations between authors and their collecting in very turbulent past. |
