Euclid/Clavius? 1607

Euclid/Clavius? (1607), Elementorum Libri XV ​ECHO

Part of WO1. Sent with DESpecs version 1.1.2.

Sent: ok/date. Returned: ok, ​raw text.

1. First Analysis

Difficulties

• ​text in red: there is a rule for red text in version 1.1.2
• additional ligatures, e.g. _{$p}_: Will be added to version 1.2. For now, we will just see what happens.

• Tables

Special Instructions

• Examples of structures that should be typed as tables or as normal text; three examples from p.506.

2. Questions From Formax

3. Analysis of the Result

Findings

Offset <pb> to ECHO is 132, e.g. <pb 468> corresponds to p.600 in ECHO.

• "toc" starting on p.21 typed as normal <p>s:

<p>1 SVPER data recta linea terminata triangu-
lum æquilaterum con$tituere.</p>
<p>2 AD datum punctum, datæ rectæ lineæ æqua-
lem rectam lineam ponere.</p>

• first numbered pages (starting with p.133):

• Euclid in upright shape, comments in italics.

• figures: Only <fig> because the Specs didn't say more about the marking of figures, but correctly marked.

• tables: in the comments, e.g. pb 35, pb 359, pb 374 (= p.506 in the Special Instructions), all ok, not very often. Table on pb 468 marked as <fig>.

• marginal notes: e.g. pb 468: two marginal notes, anchors were correctly marked (<mgl a>, <n a>). Italics was not explicitly marked again.

• Greek seems to work: p.9

  auditorio $uo admi$it, vt talia etiam,
  {οὐ}δεὶς, $cilicet, ἀγεωμέτρητ<010>εἰσίτω, eidem non
