Classification of Primary Sources IISigla of Notes, Paragraphs, Details

Matteo V. d´Alfonso, Barbara K. Saile

Hyper allows us to identify areas in our pages or pictures

and to refer to them unambiguously

We offer a step deeper of granularity in the classification: we can classify notes, paragraphs and details

Classification of Notes

The classification of notes is set in three steps:1. Identification of the single note areas on

the page

2. Giving each area one siglum

3. Determining the area position on the

page

a topographical criterium: relating to the disposition of the areas on the page

2. Once identified, areas are numbered from the top to the bottom and clockwise. These numbers co-define the sigla in Hyper.

3. The position of the areas on the page it’s determined by a set of Cartesian coordinates

1. For the identification of note areas in HyperNietzsche we have used two criteria at the same time:

a semantic criterium: referring to the area contents

The position of each note on the page is now determined by the set of Cartesian coordinates defining the perimeter of the note

We draw a closed line
