deutschestextarchiv/dibilit-korpus

DiBiLit (Digitale Bibliothek, Literatur) is a corpus of more than 2,000 literary and scientific texts from the 15th to the 20th century by renowned authors. The texts are available under the CC-BY-SA 4.0 license.

DiBiLit-Corpus

DiBiLit is a corpus being created in the BMBF-funded project CLARIAH-DE by homogenising various derivatives of texts from the "Digital Library" and extensively enriching them with (bibliographical) metadata. The more than 2,000 texts come from renowned authors, are DTABf-encoded and were made accessible within the DTA infrastructure under a Creative Commons-licence. Thus, the text collection originally published by DirectMedia Publishing can be researched using the DDC search engine integrated in the DTA as well as other DTA tools for linguistic analysis.

Falsche Datumsangaben in bibliogr. Kurztitel

https://github.com/deutschestextarchiv/DiBiLit-Korpus/blob/main/data/lyrik/petrarca_canzoniere01_1827.txt.xml#L126 sagt:

<bibl>Petrarca, Francesco: Italienische Gedichte. Band 1, Wien 1827</bibl>

Daneben steht:

<date type="publication">1827</date>
<date type="firstPublication">1470</date>

Das Datum der Erstpublikation sollte im Kurztitel vermerkt sein, da Nutzende sonst verwirrt sind.

Vermutlich werden die Header anderweitig via https://github.com/deutschestextarchiv/DiBiLit-Korpus/tree/main/metadata generiert.

Das Problem betrifft wahrscheinlich nicht nur dieses Dokument.

erzaehlungen/lenz_der-landprediger_1975 – dates

Currently we have:

<date type="publication">1975</date>
<date type="firstPublication">1977</date>
<date type="firstPublication" subtype="clariah">1977</date>
<date type="firstPublication" subtype="zeno">1977</date>

Zeno says:

Jakob Michael Reinhold Lenz: Werke in einem Band. Berlin und Weimar ²1975.
Entstanden 1776, Erstdruck in: Deutsches Museum (Leipzig), Sommer 1977.

No idea, why they date the first print (Erstdruck) after the second edition, but I think, that’s a typo, since Wikipedia states 1777 as the date of the first print. So our XML should be:

<date type="publication">1975</date>
<date type="firstPublication">1777</date>
