An international collaboration committed to creating an open educational
resource featuring a corpus of digital texts, deep-reading tools, and
open-source software. We strive to support and enhance teaching and
research. All materials can be downloaded, modified, and redistributed
in accordance with all applicable licenses.
Read texts from all available partner repositories using the Scaife Viewer, a custom Canonical Text Services (CTS) compliant reading environment.
This project aims to
collect at least one edition of every Greek work composed between Homer
and 250 CE with a focus on texts that do not already exist in other open
source environments.
In the context of Open
Greek & Latin, Perseus will offer open source, CTS versions of all
public domain Perseus-published texts for integration and reuse.
Polylingual OCR editing.
LACE catalogues the on-going campaign to produce high-quality OCR of
polytonic, or 'ancient', Greek texts in a HPC environment.
The CHS provides support
for outreach and training through initiatives such as student
internships, work on a new commentary environment for close reading.
The Harvard Library
provides support in collection acquisition and management, including
document identification, digitization work, and collection integration.
Work at the DH Chair in
Leipzig provides the basis of all aspects of work, from document
scanning and digitization review, markup, CTS review and presentation,
and repository management.
The AWOL Index: The bibliographic data presented herein has been programmatically extracted from the content of AWOL - The Ancient World Online (ISSN 2156-2253) and formatted in accordance with a structured data model.
AWOL is a project of Charles E. Jones, Tombros Librarian for Classics and Humanities at the Pattee Library, Penn State University
AWOL began with a series of entries under the heading AWOL on the Ancient World Bloggers Group Blog. I moved it to its own space here beginning in 2009.
The primary focus of the project is notice and comment on open access material relating to the ancient world, but I will also include other kinds of networked information as it comes available.
The ancient world is conceived here as it is at the Institute for the Study of the Ancient World at New York University, my academic home at the time AWOL was launched. That is, from the Pillars of Hercules to the Pacific, from the beginnings of human habitation to the late antique / early Islamic period.
AWOL is the successor to Abzu, a guide to networked open access data relevant to the study and public presentation of the Ancient Near East and the Ancient Mediterranean world, founded at the Oriental Institute, University of Chicago in 1994. Together they represent the longest sustained effort to map the development of open digital scholarship in any discipline.
